Creating a Dialog Box from a SDI 1

[XcamaroX]

I need to create a Dialox Box that pops up when you do a LButtonDown event. This is from a Single Document Interface, I know that I need to create a SDI from the New Project etc... I do know how to add WM_OnLButtonDown, but I do not know how to implement LButtonDown method to create a Dialog Box, which has a bunch of radio buttons and other stuff.

TIA!!!

Any help is greatly appreciated.

You can create a new dialog box class derived from CDialog, with a dialog resource. Switch to "resource view", right click on your .rc file and select "add resource". Then double-click on "dialog". This creates the dialog resource. Then double-click in the dialog resource on the "ok" button. Enter information about your new dialog box and it will create your dialog box class for you, and automatically add it to your project.

To invoke the new dialog box class, include the dialog box class header file from the file where your LButtonDown event is, and in the event handler, declare an object of your dialog box class, and call the DoModal() method on it.
