This should be like this,

if((*GetFocus())!=(*GetParent()))
{
 //your code
}

Whenever you click on a window, it will get focus automatically.

what i want is if child frame is focused and I click in client area of child i dont want to call GetParentFrame()->SetFocus()->RedrawWindow().

but in other case if dialog is focused and when i click on client area of child it will be focused but in addition i want to call GetParentFrame()->SetFocus()->RedrawWindow() function.

for that i want to know befour i have clicked is this child window is fouced or dialog.

I really cant understand your requirement. In this case, you will never get focus on dialog in your question.

Dear, Dear,
I understand the problem now.
Refer your original code,
You are comparing window with focus with parent window of view, which will be child frame.
You need to modify your original code to this,

int CImageView::OnMouseActivate(CWnd* pDesktopWnd, UINT nHitTest, UINT message)
{
if((*GetFocus())!= (*this))
SetFocus()->RedrawWindow();
return CWnd::OnMouseActivate(pDesktopWnd, nHitTest, message);
}

hi I have written this

int status = CView::OnMouseActivate(pDesktopWnd, nHitTest, message);
if(GetFocus()!=GetParent())
GetParentFrame()->SetFocus()->RedrawWindow();
return status;

what i want is it will not redraw window when foucs is on the same window and i clicked.

but in this code it always go in if condition.

Thanks ,

Handle WM_QUERYENDSESSION message is your application. return FALSE to stop the shutdown of logoff process.

if (message == WM_QUERYENDSESSION)  
{
if(allow)
{
return TRUE;
} 
else
{
return FALSE;
}
}

overide the WM_QUERYENDSESSION message and return 0. And after you have done your time interval call ExitWindows() to shutdown.

Handle WM_QUERYENDSESSION and return false from there.. then shutdown the window using InitiateSystemShutdown api
