1- To add a public member object in View class :

CString szText;

2- To load a value to szText object in the constructor function in View class :

szText = ”By default”;

3- To add in function C…View::OnDraw(CDC* pDC) :

pDC->TextOut(20,20,szText);

Now, you can execute the program.

4- To insert a new Dialog resource (Ctrl+R).

5- To change IDD_DIALOG1 to IDD_MY_DIALOG

6- To embed an edit box, changing its name, IDC_EDIT1, to IDC_MY_EDIT

7- To invoke ClassWizard (Ctrl+W)

8- To create a new class : CMyDialog

9- In “Member Variables” to relate IDC_MY_EDIT to a m_szMyEdit (CString)

11- To invoke ClassWizard (Ctrl+W)

12- To select in “Message Maps” the …View class through the combo box

13- Double click on WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK and click Edit Code

14- To add under TODO:

CMyDialog md;

md.m_szMyEdit = szText;

if(md.DoModal() == IDOK){

szText = md.m_szMyEdit;

Invalidate();

}

Now, you can execute the program.

15- To select IDR_MAINFRAME in resources/Menu

16- To add a new item (i.e.: “&Call”). To hang another item (i.e.: “My &Dialog”);

17- To invoke ClassWizard (Ctrl+W)

18- To select in “Message Maps” the …View class through the combo box
