    Question error on second dialog Create

    when i create a window, destroy it then create it again i get error pointing to:
    Code:
    BOOL CGdiObject::Attach(HGDIOBJ hObject)
    {
    this line ->	ASSERT(m_hObject == NULL);      // only attach once, detach on destroy
    	if (hObject == NULL)
    		return FALSE;
    	CHandleMap* pMap = afxMapHGDIOBJ(TRUE); // create map if not exist
    	ASSERT(pMap != NULL);
    	pMap->SetPermanent(m_hObject = hObject, this);
    	return TRUE;
    }
    this is my code:
    Code:
    header file:
    CCTS m_CTS;
    
    
    cpp file in a menu command event:
    void CChateXDlg::OnMCTS() 
    {
    	if(IsWindow(m_CTS.GetSafeHwnd()) == FALSE)
    	{
    		m_CTS.Create(IDD_CTS_DIALOG, GetDesktopWindow());
    		m_CTS.ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
    	}
    	else
    	{
    		m_CTS.ShowWindow(SW_RESTORE);
    		m_CTS.SetForegroundWindow();
    	}
    }
    anybody know why do i get this error? Thanks.

    edit: doesnt matter i fixed it

    Do you
    m_hObject = NULL;
    Immediately after you free it?
    Otherwise, it may think you've still got the old one when you're trying to get a new one.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    its fixed look what happened i have a class CLabel derived CStatic that is on the CTS dialog and on PreSubclassWindow i create a font which is declared in the header, problem is i didnt think that when destroying the dialog the class is not destroyed so the font was created 2 times that was the error i just used m_font.DeleteObject(); and that fixed it
