Hi everyone. I'm trying to have 2 dialogs link to each other. Lets say, Dialog 1 has a next button on it that links to Dialog 2. Can someone pls pls tell me how to do it?? I've tried looking for it online but I don't understand it. Can someone give me some example code?? Thanks!
Do it as a setup wizard....An activex component is present for this...
What you want to implement is called a PropertySheet.
Take a look here:
Property Sheets and Property Pages
A Property Sheet-Based Application
MFC Library Reference: Property Sheets and Property Pages in MFC
Creating a Property Sheet
For implementing the Next, Previous and Finish buttons:

Thank you guys. I've looked at it but it seems that property sheets have tabs, which I don't want. And the wizard is too simple. My interface has 2 buttons, each one brings me to a different dialog. There is also a back button to press to go back to the previous dialog. Sorry if I didn't make it clear before. Anyone have any ideas pls? I don't know where to look anymore..
Can't you Create a property sheet in wizard mode? This will have Sheets "not" in the form of tabs but in the form of a wizard using back next and finish buttons.
Links given by Laitinen (4th Link) explains that more clearly.
Call SetWizardMode() for your property sheet.
Hi. Yes wizard isn't tabbed, but it only has next, back and finish buttons. If I have two or three or ten buttons on one dialog, and pressing each button goes to a different dialog, I can't really do that with a wizard can I? I guess my big problem is making a button link to a different dialog, ie pressing a button will make the current dialog disappear and a new one appear. Is there an easier way or piece of code to make it happen? I hope I don't have to change the visible settings and etc...Sorry if I sound confused. =(
You can use the DoModal() function.
In your example double click on the button, make an object of the class "Dialog2".
and then call the function DoModal().
e.g.
Dialog2 temp;
temp.DoModal();
Hope that will work for you.
