Querry regarding DoModal
-
hi I am my app i am showing a form to a user using using the doModal method. int nRet = myFrm.DoModal(); And OnOk event of this form i am validating all the fields. But the problem is , if the user presses the escape key on this dialog, the form gets closed and in nRet i get value as IDOK , without validating any feilds of the form. Why is it happening so.. and how to avoid it. Vikram Verma

How did you check that the return value was IDOK ? It should be IDCANCEL as far as I know.

Why have an enabled OK button if fields/controls have invalid contents? That's a bit misleading, in my opinion.

Because he is validating the controls in response to the OK button being clicked. That means the OK button is enabled.

David didn't say so... he said that the UI was badly designed if the user were allowed to validate (press ok button) invalid datas... there should be an On-Fly data validity checking to enable/disable Ok button

I've deleted the message because it wasn't worth seeing. I didn't understand David's reply properly ("validating" --> now I know what it really means :]), and I wrote rubbishy post.
