Getting my text from edit box

Hey ive been trying to do this simple operation for the last hour and i still can't get it to work


I have an edit box and a OK button when the user enters some text and clicks OK, i wan't to display the text


I added a member variable called m_strGet type CString

Code:

// This is my add member variable CString m_strGet;


// My edit box is called IDC_EDIT_TEXTBOX


void CSimpleDlg::OnGet() 
{

     UpdateData();


	 if(m_strGet.IsEmpty() == FALSE){
            messageBox(m_strGet);
            }


     UpdateData(FALSE); 


}

It should compile but it doesn't, i get an error saying m_strGet is undefined, but i declared it public with class wizard

In theory there is nothing wrong with what you posted.
In reality however, you made at least one typo in your post, so watch out for typos in your program.

Hey thanks, i got it working now
