Great job. :)
Thanks Alir, this is what the trick was - I was setting the parent window
to be the window from which is was invoked. Setting the parents to all be
the MainWnd, did the trick.

Hey there,
I'm creating an dialog-based application in MFC that utilized many (or
at least some) modeless dialogs. I generally display the dialogs via
calls to Create and the ShowWindow(SW_SHOW). This all works fine, except
in the following circumstance.
If I launch the initial dialog for the application and then subsequently
launch 2 more modeless dialogs (for now all the dialogs are based on the
same resource, if that matters), everything works fine - I can change
focus from one dialog to another. The problem is that he window ordering
does not change. If I click on the 2nd dialog after launching the 3rd,
the 2nd becomes active and the 3rd inactive, however the 3rd dialog is
still on top of the second. I doesn't matter which dialog I click on,
the order of the dialogs stay the same.
Is this a property of dialogs that I cannot get around, or is there a
way to address this?
Thanks
Mike
