I haven''t tried this or anything but replace it with WS_MODALFRAME instead.

I sure hope it works.
Tell me if it doesn''t.

It still doesn''t work.
I''ve got a new project from the the Win32 wizard, it has the same resource framework, it works. I don''t why. Could anybody tell me, thanks.

You should add

#include "afxres.h"

at the top of your file.

How should the compiler know what DS_MODALFRAME is without a header file?

Also I think you have to add some parameter to the second DEFPUSHBUTTON line.

Is that means I should include some C runtime header files? just like

#include
#include
#include
#include

i get a header file as the wizard generated, but another problem comes,

-------------------Configuration: Sample1 - Win32 Debug--------------------
Compiling resources...
D:\PROJECTS\Sample1\resource.h(6) : fatal error RC1004: unexpected end of file found
Error executing rc.exe.

Sample1.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

how can i solve it?

thanks
terry
