How can I close a dialog after I open another?

[jvff]

Hello,
I am trying to create a program that takes steps. How can I, when the user clicks the "Next >" button it opens another dialog and closes the one just used? Thank you,

Well, you could call a EndDialog(#); on the dialog box when the user clicks next - so, you could return a different value for each button (ie back, next, etc). What you pass as the parameter is what is returned by DoModal(); For example,

CMyDlg d;
int nSel = d.DoModal();

(when EndDialog(1) is called from the CMyDlg class or whatever)

switch(nSel)
{
case -1: //cancel
case 1: //next
case 2: //back
//... whatever
}

Then just display your next dialog and repeat.

You might want to consider using Property Sheets, or Wizards... it sounds like this is what you're going for.
