Hi,

I had posted earlier about a problem with tab controls, child dialogs, and
the resulting tab order.

I have a solution, but maybe not the solution. I'm interested in your
comments.
My source could is posted with the same subject on the attachments ng.

The situation: I want to make editing of each "page" of a tab control easy
by putting them in a child dialog. The child dialogs are defined in the RC
file. When I create the tab control, I create the child dialogs. The child
dialogs' parent is the tab control.

The problem: the controls are not a part of the main dialogs tab order.

A solution: Change the parent of each of the controls to the main dialog.

This seems to work with my toy application. Does this seem like a good way
to go, or not? Your comments are welcome.

Gary
