    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

          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

                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

                            Maybe a misspelling - try CChooser instead CCHOOSER. C++ is case sensitive. Gero

                              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:
