Hi,
I would like to hide and show buttons and resize my dialog box dynamically while the program is running. I have read the posts and using everywhere I see that using ShowWindow takes 2 parameters HWnd and ID but when I write ShowWindow in my program, it only allows me to use ID. I am kind of puzzled.
BOOL CWnd::SHowWindow(int nCmdShow);
I am guessing there must be another ShowWindow function from another class than CWnd that takes 2 parameters. Thanks for the help,

There is a ShowWindow function which takes 2 arguments and a ShowWindow class method that, since it's a window class, doesn't need the window argument.

but how to differentiate between the two. The showWindow function that takes two arguments must be from another class than CWnd. Any clue which class it's from

It's a function, not a class method! And since they have different argument lists you can't possibly call the wrong one.

ms vs 2005 does not allow me to call the function with 2 arguments. It says that this function only takes 1 argument

Put :: in front of the function name:
Code:::ShowWindow(Window, Flags);

Thanks. it works now. Weird. so what does :: mean exactly.
