Tabbed dialog inside of bigger dialog

Also, does anyone know how to propperly use CTabCtrl to get a
tabed-dialog which is part of a bigger dialog-box. I can't get the
tabbing in and out of the dialog box to work propperly, and pressing
Escape closes the smaller dialog-box (nor can I find any docs or
references to the DS_CONTROL style).

Have you looked at the cmnctrls example in the MSVC-- 4.0 distribution?

I was successful in using the DS_CONTROL style.. In VC 4, you can set the
style of the dialog while editing the resource files. This will ensure that
the Tabs will function properly.
You need to handle OnCancel() and OnOK() in the smaller dialog to prevent it
from going away.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Aravind.

You may need to investigate using the WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT extended style bit
on your inner dialog.

Wouldn't you use WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT on the bigger dialog box and DS_CONTROL
on the embedded dialog?

There are some references to it in the newest Win32 SDK documentation
and in the KB.. It's not very explicit about what it does, however:
DS_CONTROL:
Creates a dialog box that works well as a child window of another
dialog box, much like a page in a property sheet. This style allows
the user to tab among the control windows of a child dialog box, use
its accelerator keys, and so on.

No. You want to use WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT on the inner dialog as well. This
informs Windows that this window is a "parent of controls."

Is this needed for dialogs? I would think that any dialog is
automatically a parent of controls. Should I add WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT
to all my dialogs? Or is it just that when I'm putting one dialog
inside another, the outer dialog looks for this style bit when it sets
up the tab order?
I'm a bit confused...
BTW, I messed up the quotes. The odd quotes are from John Elsbree -
then even ones are from me :-)

That's right: it's only needed for dialogs within dialogs, so Windows can
figure out how to manage the tab order. I didn't say it very clearly, but
that's what I meant.

My friends often tell me that I say odd things. Thanks for confirming this!
