What am I doing wrong?

[FISH786]

I did single step...I do see nResponse comming back as 1. However it's just jumping the whole if block and going straight to return FALSE. This is with just plain project no code anywhere except a message box inside the

if (nResponse == IDOK)
{
MessageBox();
}
else if (nResponse == IDCANCEL)
{
}
It's jumping this whole block.

it going to return FALSE; the follwing is what I get at the end of the steping through.

'Tool.exe': Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\imm32.dll'
'Tool.exe': Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\uxtheme.dll'

The program '[976] Tool.exe: Native' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

However I did an uninstall of the update of Internet Explorer that was done on this machine a week ago. I am Running Visual Studio 2008 Version 9.0.30729.1 SP Not sure if the above info makes any difference?

I'm surprised that it doesn't execute the messagebox - VC++ will (even in Debug mode) optimise away a completely empty if...else... statement

Well is there a way I can work around it?, I guess reinstalling is not going to help either? Quick question are you running the same version of Visual studio 2008? Could you let me know what version you running? I could uninstall 2008 and revert back to 2005 if I have to? Thanks a million.

VS2008 SP1

I don't there's a problem with your installation from what you've written - what you've said indicates that the right thing's being returned. Why doesn't that translate back into your code? Not sure.

Any suggetions as to how I could resolve this? Thanks a million

By debugging your code and working out why your code's not getting called when it should be. If that means debugging assembly language, then that's what you need to do.

I am not sure what to say, I just installed VS on a different machine and I get the same thing, no message box. I used a full install. Thanks

Which says there's something not quite right with your code, not your Visual Studio install. Debugging's the way forward in this case, I'm afraid.

Hello there, Found it. This should have not been used, when I am verifying the key to the main app. m_pMainWnd = &dlg; Thanks a lot for all your help.

Well done - I'm glad you found the problem.
