Modeless dialog communicating with parent dialog
-
Good day, I have a parent dialog instatialing a modeless dialog. My modeless dialog has a public function that updates the progress bar. Everytime I call tmpmodeless->UpdateProgressBar(step) where step is a number to increase, the progress bar show increase on display. I have also a public function in modeless dialog that updates the text for displaying the status tmpmodeless->UpdateMessageStatus(CString mymsg) but I doesnt update the display.. Here is my code: // Variables of modeless dialog CProgressCtrl m_ctrlProgress; // Created using MFC Class wizard so it sure points to the // control id of progress bar. CStatic m_statusdone; // Created using MFC Class wizard so it sure points to the // control id CStatic control id. Also sure that Visible property is checked. CMyParentDialog::MyInitialize() { CMyModelessDialog* tmpmodeless=new CMyModelessDialog(this); tmpmodeless->Create(CMyModelessDialog::IDD); tmpmodeless->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW); tmpmodeless->UpdateProgressBar(10); //OK is reflects on screen tmpmodeless->UpdateMessageStatus("Help me step 10"); doesnt change display.. tmpmodeless->UpdateProgressBar(20); //OK is reflects on screen tmpmodeless->UpdateMessageStatus("Help me step 20"); still doesnt change display.. } void CMyModelessDialog::UpdateProgressBar(int pStep) { m_ctrlProgress.SetPos(pStep); } void CMyModelessDialog::UpdateMessageStatus(CString mymsg) //Doesnt work.. why??????????????? { m_statusdone.SetWindowText(mymsg); UpdateData(TRUE); } Still Doesnt appear even if I manually put m_statusdone.SetWindowText("Test") under UpdateProgressBar because UpdateProgressBar sure does works on setting progressbar. Is there something Wrong with CStatic control???? Thanks.

UpdateData(TRUE)at that point? Was it just for testing purposes? Make sure your static control uses an identifier different thanIDC_STATIC(i.e, -1) -- jlr http://jlamas.blogspot.com/[^] -
