I think you should use the CDialog class instead of the CWnd one. To create a modeless dialog box, I did that :
CDialog optionDlg;

optionDlg.Create(resource_id,hWnd);

But you need to have a resource ID. This works in my application.

If this is a student project, I might be accused of giving you too much of the solution, but since I have gotten some help here, I make this contribution. Similar to the previous response, if you have declared CMyDialog as derived from CDialog, and you have created a dialog resource, calling it, in this case IDD_MYRESOURCE, your code might look somthing like this:

CMyDialog* pDlg;

void CMainWindow::OnShowDlg()
{
if(pDlg != NULL)
{
pDlg->SetFocus();
return;
}
pDlg = new MyDialog;
pDlg->Create(IDD_MYRESOURCE, this);
}

void CMyDialog::OnCancel()
{
DestroyWindow();
}
Since you say your dialog will not have any buttons, instead of the OnCancel() function, I suppose you could call pDlg->EndDialog(int n), although I have not tried this. By the way, this example comes, in large part, from Windows with MFC, by Prosise, a very valuable text for those learning MFC and VC++. [sig][/sig]
