Re: CDialog::Create serious bug
Where is a repro?
Note also that the owner window should be an overlapped (top-level) or popup
(owned) window. Child window cannot be an owner.
Also, if you supply NULL pParentWnd to those MFC functions, the application
main window will be used. When I wanted to create an unowned window, I used
dummy CWnd without a window created, as pParentWnd.

In spite of the fact that you can presumably specify a parent window for a
modeless
dialog, the low-level API ignores whatever window you give it and makes
the main
application window be the parent of the dialog. I even wrote a simple
raw-Win32 app to
test this, and it fails in the same way. The parent window is apparently
completely
ignored.
CDialog::Create, CDialog::CreateIndirect, ::CreateDialog,
::CreateDialogIndirect, all have
this error.
Needless to say, this made my bugs list.
