for question #1 Have you tried the LineScroll() member function ? For example, after UpdateData(FALSE); int nVis = m_edit1c.GetFirstVisibleLine(); int nscroll = m_edit1c.GetLineCount() - nVis; m_edit1c.LineScroll(nscroll); (assuming that you have a control variable, m_edit1c, associated with the Rich edit control)

Use this: GotoDlgCtrl(GetDlgItem(IDC_MYCONTROL)); That way, you don't need to setup a member variable of the control type...

As Tim said, override OnOk, but if you leave in the call to CDialog::OnOk the dialog will still end.
