    Define "can`t open the resource". If you open the resource View then what do you see in it?

    I don`t see the resource. I probably just need a mere WinMain.

      I already told you where to find it, or you can just use the View menu item to open the Resource View.

              In have explained twice already, open the resource view, either from the View menu, or use Ctrl+Shift+E.

                I got it, but only after you closing and opening the project again. Sorry for making ripples over nothing.

                  I`m trying to build a barebones MFC app. I`m used to C# Forms, but I`m having a tough time in MFC though. I`m creating a new MFC app in the New Project dialog and in the Wizard I pick Dialog based app as app type. However after creation I can`t open the resource (in the resource view) to fill it with controls.

                  I need help in dealing with a picture control. How do you access/change the picture control data (within a click button event) ?

                    The recommended MFC way is to create a control member variable (of the type CStatic or any derived from CStatic class) for this picture control. Then you will be able use all the methods of this class.

                      I want to use a plain (basic) Win32 approach with an exposed WinMain. It`s not a rich Win App, I only need a button or two, a textbox and a listbox (besides the picture box)

                        Then why is your subject "basic MFC app"?

                            I made my mind. MFC is too much of a hassle. It crossed my mind to make a new thread, but I thought it would be better to keep rolling with this one.
