      You can do that manually by converting dialog to doc-view based SDI/MDI app by creating new Doc,View,Frame files and integrating the logic in there and doing lots of other things. But that would be very cryptic because there are very meticulous things to be done in order to achieve it.(e.g. manually editing RC to create frames, menu, toolbar and all). I think instead of tweaking same app from dlg based to SDI/MSI, it'd be better if you create a fresh MDI/SDI app and then port the functionality one by one from your dialog based app to the SDI/MDI app. Regards Cage

        Well if you implemented any sort of Design using Best Practices and Patterns it should be very simple rote work to replace the UI with another. Of course you have to actually develop the UI which may not be simple at all.
