Is the combobox "tall" enough? The default height is way too small.

That would be overkill.

Many times such products(I'm not sure about AutoCad though) are cross-platform.
For extensibility they provide there interfaces,API's, or scripting language.
And there interface provides such functionalities like MessageBox. He need to look in to there SDK help.

In case of Windows platform. He can use suggestion by christian Graus.
But its always better to use API's given by Products development kit.

Yes, if they do so it would always be the better option to go ahead with.

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?
