am i explaining myself correctly???????????????????????????????? does anyone have anyclue??

how do you do this?? When i make dialog boxes they minimize right above the taskbar as opposed to minimizing into the taskbar with the parent application... Do you have to change the owner of the dialog boxes?? When you call AFXMESSAGEBOX("") that dialog that is created gets put into the taskbar.. So i am asuming that when a window is created whos owner is the main application, it gets put into the taskbar upon minimization - but when a dialog is created as a child, it minimizes right above the taskbar. Ive asked this quesiton before and had no answers - has anyone had this problem before?? Can someone at least point me where to look for the answer? thanks -kevin

ok i have a question... I am working on a project right now whos base class is CFormView... When i create dialog boxes from the main application they do not minimize into the taskbar - instead they minimize to the bottom of the screen just above the taskbar area... Is there anyway to make these dialog boxes minimize into the taskbar - for example - AOL INSTANT MESSENGER - each chat conversation box that opens up minimizes into the taskbar and eventually they start stacking up on each other.... is there a setting i have to change in the dialog boxes properties? perhaps change the owner of the window??? HELP! -kevin
