Re: Help with default class object name.

Sorry to do this again, but I believe I have probably not asked for
what I needed very well. Or at least, what I thought I needed is in
fact wrong.

Here is part of my class:

class CDocFinderDlg : public CDialog
  {
public:
  CString CDocFinderDlg::ReturnPath(void)
    {
    return CString(strPath);
    }
  }

I have a StaticText box which has a CString variable called 'strPath',
linked to it. I am not even 100% sure that I am doing this right, I am
just trying everything I can think of, (which has led to me having to
start the whole project again 4 times)...

I need to access ReturnPath() from another class entirely. I think it
might be the declarations I am stuck on, but I am not so sure. How
would I access this class function from say, 'MyListBox'? I think it's
a pointer to the StaticText box that might be needed, but then again, I
am not too sure as to how to go about doing it, so any hints to
resources that might help would be fantastic!

Is using AwxGetMainWnd() the best route to take, or am I just confusing
things? Whilst this is only a test project, it's primary purpose is to
ensure that I start coding properly, and not how I 'think' it should be
done, and then end up with a very bad habbit that always ruins my
programs.

It might be easier for me to somehow create a global variable, and just
access the variable, but I am totally unsure as to whether it can be
done, how it should be done, and whether there is a better, simpler
way.

Thanks for your patience everyone, it's much appreciated. My head is
currently spinning (exocist-style), and no amount of coffee is helping
me...
