Hello,
I've got a dialog based app, a wizard, that I want to display a doc/view
frame from one of the pages. My question is, how do I create and display
the doc/view frame from a function in the wizard?
Thanks
Dan

I have done something similar, but not from a wizard. I don't see why it would be different, though. This is how I did it:
1. Register a document type in the CWinApp:InitInstance() as normal.
2. Also in the InitInstance, use ShowWindow(FALSE) to hide the CMainFrame.
3. Post a WM_COMMAND message to CMainFrame that will call your wizard, like this:
pMainFrame->ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
pMainFrame->UpdateWindow();
pMainFrame->PostMessage(WM_COMMAND, ID_INPUT_AUXINPUT);
4. In your wizard, when you get to the step where you want to open a document, show the mainframe and open your document:
CMainFrame* mf = (CMainFrame*)GetParentFrame();
mf->m_bPlot = TRUE;
mf->ShowWindow(TRUE);
AfxGetApp()->OpenDocumentFile(sSomeFileName);
That's it....pretty easy....

MFC doesn't support that directly. You'll need to instantiate the document,
create the view (parenting it to the wizard page) and associate the view
to the document yourself, manually. You'll then find out why MFC doesn't
support this: you'll need to add some code to the property sheet to handle
keyboard and mouse focus and activation. (ie, you'll need to write some code
that lets the user tab away from tab stops in your document and set focus to
the buttons on the wizard page, and vice versa.)
This special case code will add up pretty quickly, and MFC doesn't incldue
it becasue what you're doing isn't a very common idea.

These words are my own. I do not speak on behalf of Microsoft.
This performance was not lip-synched.

Dan,
In a nutshell you will probably want to derive classes from CFrameWnd,
CView
and CDocument (Note: depending on whether you want MDI or SDI select the
appropriate CFrameWnd). Then you can create a Template (again MDI or SDI)
that corresponds to the Runtime Type of your derived objects. This template
is then capable of creating a doc/view frame from
CDocTemplate::CreateNewFrame.
BTW, Mike Blaszczak has a book that covers this topic very well. Check out
"The Revolutionary Guide to MFC 4 Programming with Visual C++", Chap 4.
