Hi,
Here I got a problem. I have created a dialog window with DoModal(). Now in that window I will read a file in OnInitDialog(), that file will have variable number of fields( File1 may have 10, file 2 may have 20 etc, and all these files are with same extension). Now based on the number of fields I want to display the number of checkboxes in that Dialog window. I tried to create check boxes and adding those to dialog, but no use. And I have created the check boxes a bunch statically and I gave the property visible as false and I tried to make that check box visible in OnInitDialog(). But I didn't find any appropriate function for that. Please help me out.

Regards
Ashok

Are you using VS or just Visual C++?
It really does make a difference, because if you are using VS

you can just put the code you need to read and make your checkbox/file contents ratio creation in the form onload event handler.

if VS is the case let me know and I can help you.

which I'm thinking that you're not using VS because to show a form modal, you just use the form->showdialog()

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Am 100% new to MS products. So, I can't figure out much difference between a dialog and form. Am using Visual Studio 2005 with VC++ only installed. And am not creating any forms( if am correct that Dialog and Form is different). In the resource view I have added a new dialog and I want to add the check boxes to that dialog at runtime.
