In the OnInitDialog() method of your dialog you can do intializations.<br>You can use SetCurSel(int Index) method to select any item by default. Their are several ways to do this here i will give you one example.<br><br> int index = m_ComboBox.SetCurSel(1);<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;UpdateData(FALSE);<br><br><br>You can use CWnd method in your handler for for check box<br>to check checkbox state.<br><br>int GetCheckedRadioButton( int nIDFirstButton, int nIDLastButton );<br><br>also see CWnd::CheckRadioButton&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>and&nbsp;&nbsp;CWnd::CheckDlgButton&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>hope this helps<br>
