I always understood that that is what you meant. But my question was, if I wanted to place the controls visually, then how would I change the type? It has been confirmed that by placing the controls visually, it is easier to position them, they come with the client edge and normal font as default and it's generally a lot easier. But when I click on Edit control in the toolbox and make one, I do not see a way to change its type as there is no instance created in the dialog's code. The link to the post you gave me does not explain this. It tells me to use the add variable wizard, which is not what I wanted to do (see this post).

You don't change the type when adding the variable. As your comments indicate above, you let it create CEdit variables and change it yourself. I've said that at least four times now.

Change this

	CEdit ws_edit;

to this

	CDecimalEdit ws_edit;

That's it. That's all. You're done.
