IDC_CONTENT: a edit box control of dlg
CString m_strContent : variable of IDC_CONTENT control

i can show text with this fuction: (instead i use UpdateData(0) )
dlg->GetDlgItem(IDC_CONTENT)->SetWindowText(m_strContent);

You could do:
SetDlgItemInt(IDC_COUNT, m_Count);

This one is the prefered one.

The safe method would be:

Code:

---

UpdateData(TRUE);
m_Count = 100;
UpdateData(FALSE);

In case you have more such controls, and want to preserve the others from side effects that might appear(say I have n_Count1 and n_Count2. I can modify anyone of them by typing values, but when I press a button n_Count1 is to be reset to 0, while n_Count2 remains unchanged. Without the first call to UpdataData the edit number would be set to the last "saved" n_Count2).

Because I have a loop (while) and I want display data immediatly in each loop, then using UpdateData() can't do this work.

I used your method:
dlg->SetDlgItemInt(IDC_COUNT, count)
and dlg->SetDlgItemInt(IDC_COUNT, count,FALSE)

two work greatly!

thanks alot!
