Hi,

I don,t want to close pop up dialogbox while I am working on Main application

How do i do that? I have added pop up dialogbox using DoModel.

It won't allow me to work on main dialogbox until I close pop up dialog box.

FYI : I am using pop up dialog box as "help" to my MFC application.

Or How I can add help in MFC (project is without context sensitive help)?

Thank you.

I think he's talking about a modal dialog ^^

If you are talking about a modal dialog, you cannot go back to the main window until the dialog is closed, because it is the way a modal dialog is supposed to behave.

You may try to use a non-modal dialog instead?

Hope this helps.
