So when the user clicks on it they can't expand the tree to see the child nodes? Then what's the point of even having the Tree Control?

what about CWnd::EnableWindow ?
or handle the mouse clicks to do nothing if the user clicks on the root ?

Which is what I showed. If, however, you need the dialog to be otherwise visible, see here, and here (about 3/4 way down).
In the future, please explain all of your requirements up front so that we do not provide you with less-than-helpful suggestions.

You make your main application window a child window of a hidden parent window.

Hello,
Being a very noob at c++, i managed to screw it up completely with this little piece of code
#define stdcall_api __stdcall
Now, at the time, i did not know this would hurt me in so many ways that would make the Spanish Inquisition proud, but apparently this had the effect of generating me 272 errors , all located in winnt.h and winbase.h, in all my Visual c++ 2008 projects that i have and need to build.
My question is: can i get my projects building again?
Thank you very very much,
A noob @ c++

just a guess, in what order are you #including your headers, and where do you #define you stdcall_api ?

You probably meant the other way around since __stdcall is a reserved word, i.e. you want the identifier stdcall_api to be substituted with __stdcall during the preprocessing phase, right?
The errors you got are from the windows header files wherever __stdcall is substituted by stdcall_api which is an unknown identifier.
Do it like this:
#define __stdcall stdcall_api
Forget that the above ever existed, it's embarrassing.

Sorry thoru, disregard from my previous post, I must have been delirious when I wrote it.

no Roger, you're going to replace every occurence of __stdcall with stdcall_api (which is not defined, so leading to errors).
what the OP wants is the opposite, and remember #define works "the opposite" as typedef 
so he wrote it well ; the error is elsewhere.

Yeah, plus, i do not see why it would affect my other builds or this one, if i take the #define out.
I think i have stumbled upon something very strange with this stdcall_api.

|
|
|

hum, also, why are you defining such stdcall_api macro ?
