Hi,

I was just trying to figure out how to go about
to have a *modeless* dialog box, appear from
a *modal* dialog box....is it possible?

My WinMain only creates a dialog using the DialogBox
function. So there is NO message loop needed and therefor
I can't use the IsDialogMessage function to control
my modeless dialog....hmmmmm...

Any ideas?

Thanx.
Lucas

Sure, I have a dialog box that is model and I create
a multipage effect, (i.e. switching out a portion of
the dialog) by creating a modeless dialog box and
then adding it into the tab sequence. Just remember
the modeless dialog is a child of the model dialog
so any window positioning is relative to the parent.
