Re: MFC: adding a control into a dialog window

But I would imagine that the problem is that your parentwnd is NULL. GetDlgItem() will get the CWnd* of a child control of the dialog, and there is not one with the ID IDD_HELLO_DIALOG. Just pass the "this" pointer as the parent.

Thanks.

But a much easier way to do this kind of thing is to put the static control on the template and show/hide it as needed.

Um... When I was coding Foxpro, sometimes, it's neater to insert control into a form after design time. So I am trying to repeat what I did with Foxpro here.
