How to set a focus

[atoledo]

Hi! I´m a C++ beginner and I would like to know how can I set the focus to a edit box. I´m triying to build a login dialog and I would like to set the focus to the first edit box ( where the user puts his/her login). I tried to use GetDlCtrl and setFocus but no results!

Thanks!

BOOL ventanita::OnInitDialog()
{
//Recover mthe control ID
CWnd *uWnd = GetDlgItem(IDC_USUARIO1);
// Set the focus
uWnd->SetFocus();
}

Did you use the Class Wizard to generate your OnInitDialog() handler? If you did there would be a return statement with a comment following it, like this:

	return TRUE;  // return TRUE  unless you set the focus to a control

BOOL ventanita::OnInitDialog()
{

CWnd *uWnd = GetDlgItem(IDC_USUARIO1);
uWnd->SetFocus();

// TODO: Add extra initialization here

return TRUE; // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control
// EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE
}

yes but it doesn't resolve my problem! :'(
