CPropertySheet Questons

[moobob]

I have a CPropertySheet which has two property pages in Wizard mode. In my OnWizardFinish handler on the second page I do an EndDialog(IDOK). I then call another modal dialog, dialogB. The wizard dialog does not go away until dialogB is dismissed and the return from the OnWizardFinish is executed. - Is there anyway to make the wizard dialog go away immediatly, the EndDialog does not seem to do it? - I've unchecked the System Menu resource from the wizard dialog. The CPropertySheet puts the system close button (X) in the upper right corner. Is there a way to remove it? Thanks in advance, Bob

As for your first question, probably calling CMyPropertySheet::ShowWindow(SW_HIDE) before launching the second dialog will do. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Thanks for your response. This has no effect, the dialog is still behind the latest one, as it was before.

You sure? Try this sequence:ShowWindow(SW_HIDE), launch dialog, EndDialog. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Are you calling ShowWindow( SW_HIDE ) directly from within the OnWizardFinish() handler, or are you calling GetParent() -> ShowWindow( SW_HIDE )?    As for the system menu, you can try specifying WS_POPUP without WS_SYSMENU when you create the Property Sheet, or modifying the Sheet's styles after creation.    Unchecking the System Menu in the Dialog/Resource Editor does little for you in this case, because the dialog editor is used to modify the Pages, not the Sheet.    Peace! -=- James.

why not just have whatever called the CPropertySheet call the dialog whenever it returns? if (MySheet.DoModal() == ID_WIZFINISH) { dialogB.doModal(); } if you have a good reason then ignore my question :) -dz

James, The GetParent()->ShowWindow(SW_HIDE) does the trick, thanks. How would I modify the Sheet's style after creation to have WS_POPUP without WS_SYSMENU? I assume I would do it in it's OnInitDialog()? Thanks, Bob

I've got it, it's ModifyStyle (WS_SYSMENU, 0) in the Sheet's OnInitDialog. Thanks for your help. Bob
