CEditView MFC app

[Jay Hova]

Hi, Created a MFC app that uses the CEditView as a base class. I wanted to know if it was possible to insert text on the editor that pops up automatically. If it is, can i make it so that it comes up on each editor window that comes up? Also, is there a way to change the app from a multiple document app to just a single document app without starting over? Thanks in advance.

Lookup CView / CEditView :: OnInitialUpdate (). This would be an ideal place for a "SetText (...)". It is possible to switch to an SDI configuration, but I can't remember all the steps. If you have a lot of code you don't want to simply copy across, create a blank SDI and a blank MDI app, and compare the two to get the information you want. Iain

There is not an OnInitialUpdate() in my program. I did not see it in class wizard either. Could you possibly explain to me in more detail? Is there another way to do this? thanks again for your help.
