Hi, when im trying to use... CDialogTemplate dlt; LPCTSTR ID=_T("IDD_TESTDLG_DIALOG"); if (!dlt.Load(ID)) return -1; the issue is eventhough the ID is correct but the above if statement returns -1 but if i use if (!dlt.Load(MAKEINTRESOURCE(CTestDlg::IDD))) return -1; the above statement doesn"t return -1.. Please help me regarding the same...

You might change this to:
LPTSTR ID2 = MAKEINTRESOURCE(CTestDlg::IDD);
if (! dlt.Load(ID2)) return -1;and use the preprocessor's output to see if
ID2contains a different value thatID."Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw later in life what you have deposited along the way." - Unknown

Thanks for ur Reply David .... but the issue is with the below lines.. CDialogTemplate dlt; LPCTSTR ID=_T("IDD_TESTDLG_DIALOG"); if (!dlt.Load(ID)) return -1; the above code is returning -1 which is undesirable because ID is correct... the issue is i have id as String like _T("IDD_TESTDLG_DIALOG")(ie im getting the ID of the resource as a String instead of CTestDlg::IDD) ... Please correct me if im wrong....

The point of the exercise was to compare the two (i.e.,
IDvs.ID2).MAKEINTRESOURCE()is a macro that the preprocessor will expand, which is why I suggested a temporary variable."Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw later in life what you have deposited along the way." - Unknown

ya..but MAKEINTRESOURECE converts an integer value to a resource type ... but in the case of CDialogTemplate dlt; LPCTSTR ID=_T("IDD_TESTDLG_DIALOG"); if (!dlt.Load(ID)) return -1; i need to pass id as String instead of integer...the doubt it is not working is i send id as string... Sorry for inconvenience caused ....

Did you look at the preprocessor's output?

ya it"s not recognising the ID which sent as string but it is working fine if i pass ID AS integer.. Pls let me know...

So what is its output?

You may want to re-read this thread to understand exactly what it is that I am asking of you.

Dialog name IDs should be either a string or a 16-bit unsigned integer. If you remove dialog id definition (#define IDD_TESTDLG_DIALOG number) from the file named "resource.h", it will work. Or you should enter that name with double quotes (like "IDD_TESTDLG_DIALOG") as dialog ID of dialog properties.
