Dialog Box question
-
Hi I want to bring up a dialog box when a button is clicked.I'm having problems getting the dialog box to appear when I click on the file. My code is:
void CMainFrame::OnSFile() { m_chatterChooser.DoModal(); }And I've declared in the header:CDialog m_chatterChooser;Is this correct? :~ Thank you.Did you create a dialog ressource and derived a new CDialog class based on this ressource? Gero

I created the resource, but no.. didn't derive a new CDialog class. I thought I didn't have to.:~ I will try that. Thank you!
Use class-wizard to generate the derived class from CDialog. Remember to select the right dialog ressource id when generating the derived class. Gero

ok, I've done that, but still nothing happens when I click on the button. What am I not doing?:confused:
Did you use class wizard? Did you chose the right dialog ressource id in class wizard? Which type is m_chatterChooser now? Gero

I have it as CDialog. I chose the resource ID for the dialog that I just built. (Chatter chooser). What do I have to change the type to? I put CCHooser which is the name of the class.. and I got errors. Please bear with me, I'm new to this. Thank you so much

m_chatterChooser must be of type CChooser

If your derived class is named CCHooser you have to include CCHooser.h in the source file where you have declared m_chatterChooser. #include "CCHooser.h" Gero

I have six errors!:confused: I have in my mainframe.cpp
#include "CHOOSER.h" #include "CHOOSER.cpp"andvoid CMainFrame::OnSFile() { // attempting to open a small dialog box to choose a chatter to send file to: m_chatterChooser.DoModal();}In my mainframe.h:CCHOOSER m_chatterChooser;Also, the name of the class is CCHOOSER, but the fileview has chooser.cpp and chooser.h I know this is a simple thing.. why I am having so much trouble? :confused: -

That didn't work, same 5 errors. I know C++ is case sensitive, that's why I put it in all caps. The class is in all caps. I'm going to delete the class and start again.. and give it a name that doesn't start with C! Is that a good idea? Thank you so much for your help!:rose::rose:
