Serializing a class different from CDoc

[StefanoCarniel]

Hello evreybody.
In my project I create a new document template, with the class CProfileDoc, CProfileView. CProfileView is derived from CFormView. The form has some control (combo box and text box) and a OK button. I need to serialize the data written in the controls when the user click the ok button. So

1) in the OnProfileOk function of CProfileView, I call a

PostMessage(WM_COMMAND, ID_FILE_SAVE);

2) this automatically recall the Serialize method of the
CProfileDoc class, but I want to recall the serialize
method of the CProfileView, because the data I want to
serialize are in the CProfileView class. So I override
the CProfileDoc::Serialize in this way

void CProfileDoc::Serialize(CArchive& ar)
{
CProfileView::Serialize( ar );
}

3) I override the serialize method of the CProfileView class
in this way

void CProfileView::Serialize(CArchive& ar)
{
CObject::Serialize( ar );
if (ar.IsStoring())
{
ar << m_final_time;
}
else
{
ar >> m_final_time;
}
}

4) I also use the directives DECLARE_SERIAL and IMPLEMENT_SERIAL in the declaration of CProfileView.

When I try to compile I got the error

error C2352: 'CProfileView::Serialize' : illegal call of non-static member function

Can you help me?
Thank you

From your doc get an instance to the view using CDocument's GetFirstViewPosition/GetNextView methods.

Then call its Serialize.

   theViewYouFound->Serialize(ar);

By the way, storing the data in the view is kind of the opposite to what the document-view pattern is all about.
