Thread: Update

Things still aren't working so well...

but I've assigned the button a command ID as you said, and I got the daft error about the bracket thing...

SO

I swapped the ID...whatever with just a number so I had:

MyButton.idCommand=50000; (40000 ones are took...I checked)

and then

hMyButton=GetDlgItem(hMyButton,50000);
if(hMyButton==NULL){
cout<<"failed on the handle\n";
}

But it keeps failling there...

hrm....this was meant to be a reply in my previous post... ...so sorry for that!
