[Guyver]

Hi

Just a simple question for all you C++ greats out there :D
Im using visual studio .net (C++ MFC) and i was stuck on how do you create a new dialog box and make it pop up before the main dialog box? I'm trying to do i password on my program you see.

O and also how do you change the colour of the text in a button?

Create the class if you're talking about a modal dialog (which I assume you are), you could call DoModal for the password dialog from the OnInitDialog of what you are calling the "main" dialog box. Or you could do it from earlier in the InitInstance of the CWinApp-derived class, than when the "main" dialog's DoModal is called.
