Actually i m asking this thing because i have a dialog based application in a disk, when i copy same application on to another disk, size remains same but i am unable to get my dialog box in my newly copied application. I have opened resource file also, but definations are also not available there. Now i dont know how to get my previous dialog boxes.

When we create any dialog, when we use some controls on that dialog the implementation for that dialog is inside our MFC DLLs, also if we have some custom controls then implementation for it is in that particular DLLs, as the dialog is not external dependancy (unlike BMPs), it is inside the application itself, and the information related to that dialog is given in resource file, using Resource file information the compiler takes the corresponding resources and renders dialog accordingly. Wht you must have missed is to copy the resouce file properly. Copy it again and compile it .. Hopefully it should work then.
Thanks, Anand.

Try recompiling the code again. Regards, Paresh.

Dialog templates are stored in the project's
.rcfile. After compiling, they are in a.resfile along with all the other resources (e.g., bitmaps, menus, icons).

What do you mean by "get my dialog box?"

Definations? Can you open the copied .rc file and locate the dialog templates? If not, can you do so with the original .rc file? Is the dialog created at design-time or at run-time?
