how to check radio button in another dialog

hi, how to check radio button in another dialog to the corresponding radio button in one dialog

You can do this by ON_COMMAND messaging. ON_COMMAND messaging sends or pumps a message to your entire program. It gets very tricky when sending messages from one Dialog class to another. The best programming with respect to Dialog based programs, is to keep your Views ( Dialog ) loosely coupled from the inner workings ( Control ). Some go on the idea of MVC ( model, View, Control ) idea. Try to read up on this. Another way is to implement a GoF concept, by using the "Observer pattern" ( plenty of example here in codeproject ). This pattern does the job of keeping the Dialog class loosly coupled, and is continually updated when information is changed, or an action has taken place ( hint: such as a radio button clicked ). All in all, messaging from one dialog to another has its pitfalls.
