Use GetParent() from the Child Dialog.

GetParent()->SetWindowText("New title"); Big Grin | :-D

If it is possible, Please let me know.

Is the child dialog a model dialog or modeless dialog ?

If its a modeless, did you pass the the parent window to the modeless dialog ?

Since noone else answers, I feel I have to.

The answer is very simple: You don't!
That's because all NT-versions of Windows (including i.e. Win2k, XP) doesn't allow processes (like programs) to access hardware directly.
In the old DOS-based Windows-versions (up to Me), it was all right.

There is a utlitity (available in several versions) called inpout32. Maybe you could use one of them? Search with Google for inpout32.

I think they worked with win16 only and does not work with WinNT onwards.

I made a quick Google search before I posted my answer, and found a couple of versions that did execute under XP too.
I'm not sure if they work or not, but it seems as if they do.

For instance, this:

Difference between CToolbar and CDialogBar

even if you are able to access the memory address, probably you wont get what you are looking for.

What is that you want to do with LPT1, check CreateFile(...) windows api. You can create a handle to that port and do what you want to do with it.

Dialog bar can have controls that can otherwise only be placed on a Dialog box.

But toolbar can have buttons only. Ofcourse you can have combos and others too. But it's tedious.

Dialog bar is real cool. Cool | :cool:

maybe not exactly what you need, but there is one here[^] on CodeProject.

there are also these:
http://dtemplatelib.sourceforge.net/index.htm
http://otl.sourceforge.net/otl3.htm
http://www.codeproject.com/database/TemplateDB.asp

http://www.infobjects.com/pages/index.php?rubriqueid=2&srubriqueid=36&numpage=0&langue=2
(as far as i understood, it can use ODBC sources, but i am not completely sure)

Hi,

Thank you very much, but I'm looking for a database CRecordset derived classes code generator (like MSVC does) which includes bulk operations (SELECT and INSERT).

Kind regards,
