Are you already using a framework that allows you to write code that runs inside AutoCAD ? Or are you just writing a stand alone program at this point ? It seems to me that if you have access to AutoCAD via a COM library or something, then you should get all the facilities you need from there.

Having said that, if you're already inside AutoCAD, you just need to make the main HWND of AutoCAD the owner of a call to MessageBox.

The first parameter of MessageBox is a HWND. If you pass the HWND of AutoCAD, then the message box will have the AutoCAD window as it's parent.

Write one Set function to set the data into the second dialog and then display this dialog.

For eg:

void SetData( PVOID pCustomData )
{
   m_myData = (PMYDATA) pCustomData;
}

Or pass the data to the constructor of the second dialog...

Or use events to send the data to the second dialog and wrap the data inside the LPARAM or WPARAM parameters.

Suppose you are creating these dialog in some class say a dialog class
CMainDlg

Class CMainDlg:Public CDialog
{

private:
Dlg1* pDlg1;
Dlg2* pDLg2;
......
}
Then in Class Dlg1 expose a function to Get the other dialog control's data and in class Dlg to set theat data
for eg

Class Dlg1:public CDilaog
{
public
CString GetDataFrmControl(); // supposing control's data type is of type CString
}

Class Dlg2:public CDilaog
{
public
void SetDataToControl( CString& Data ); // supposing control's data type is of type CString
}

///////////////////////////
CMainDLg::OnInitDialog
{
PDlg1 = new Dlg1;
pDlg2 = new Dlg2;
pDLg1->Create(..)
pDlg2->Create(..)

// pass the value from one dialog to another where ever needed
pDlg2->SetDataToControl( pDLg1->GetDataFrmControl())
}

What is the relationship between the two dialogs? Are they siblings? Does one "own" the other? Are they both modal?

How do you get a dialog to respond to a key down message?

Hey guys,

My name is Danny and I am working on a project using MFC based dialog and property pages. This question may sound really dumb, but I've added a key down handler for a property page I'm working on and for love or money I can't seem to get it to respond. I've thrown brake points everywhere and I can't get it to respond.

Are there any suggestions out there?

Thanks Guys.

What is the notification code that gets sent when a scrollbar event occurs?

skyapie20-Sep-06 22:11

Hi,

I'm using the OnNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult) method to find out when a user uses a scrollbar. Except I'm not sure what to be checking lParam against. I've casted lParam to be a NMHDR*, but when I check the value of pNMHDR->code, it's usually 0xFFFFFFF4.

Can anyone tell me what xxxxx should be in the following line?

BOOL CBaseFormView::OnNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult) <br />
{<br />
	NMHDR* pNMHDR = (NMHDR*)lParam;<br />
	<br />
	if(pNMHDR->code == xxxxx)	<br />
	{<br />
		//Do stuff<br />
	}<br />
}

Or can someone tell me if I'm going about this the wrong way?

Thanks,
skyapie

You will get control at OnVScroll() OnHScroll() when the suer scrolls the scrol bar

That will work if the scrollbar is for the view, not for a list control or list box in the view...

If this scrollbar is of this view only then it will not send WM_NOTIFY message. Handle WM_VSCROLL message

This code will work , if you want to handle scrolling of child window of this view, lets say scrolling in listcontrol present as child of this view.
