dear all
i have an mfc diallog based app with frame as main window.
on app start an icon appears at the system tray and on dbl clicking that a dialog box appears. the problem is that on every dbl click, a new dialog box appears
how do i ensure that only one dialog appears at a time?

can anyone suggest something?

thanx

Although not "Bullet Proof" this may help:

In you Dialog's InitInstance() add this:
CWnd* PrevWnd, ChildWnd;
// Returns NULL if no such window is found
PrevWnd = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL, "NameOfYourDialogWindow"

if (PrevWnd)
{
ChildWnd = PrevWnd->GetLastActivePopup();
PrevWnd->BringWindowToTop();

// If iconic, restore the main window
if (PrevWnd->IsIconic())
PrevWnd->ShowWindow(SW_RESTORE);
}
else
MessageBox, whatever you want to do.....
