Linker Errors

[mhandlon]

I have a dll I’m trying to add functionality to, this file already opens a dialog window. I want to call another dialog. I want to call another dialog in the constructor of this one, which I would think nominally is really easy.

resource editor>add resource>new dialog
then I added the buttons and edit boxes I wanted. Then right clicked on the dialog in the resource editor and added a class for it. So far to this point everything built fine.

Now:

Any idea what this means…. It seems to be the same thing over and over.

check that the IDD_ for the two classes is different. Check any similarities between the classes that might confuse the compiler
