Dialog Box Question
-
When a modal dialog box is closed using EndDialog does it's parent window recieve a message to notify it that the dialog has closed? I want to update some info in my status bar as soon as the dialog is closed. Thanks in advance, Paddy
If this is MFC, then
DoModalreturns only whenEndDialogis called. If this is a non-MFC modal dialog you created by callingDialogBox, thenDialogBoxwon't return tillEndDialogis called. Nish

Thanks for the help. It's non-MFC I'm using. Does this mean that my main window can't do anything until EndDialog is called? Paddy
