Hi Yael,

This may be a repost, but in case you missed it I think this info will help
you:

Example for creating a modeless dialog:

http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/gettingmodeless.asp?df=100&forumid=3006&exp=0&select=1372923

To disable the parent I'd do something like:

CWnd *pWnd = GetParent();

if(pWnd)
    pWnd->EnableWindow(false);

or
    pWnd->EnableWindow(true);

I have my dialog and my goal is just minimze this into the taskbar as a
button ( like all the normal applications behaviore on minimized).

I'm calling to my dialog from CMatAgentMFCApp:
====================== code ==========================
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// The one and only CMatAgentMFCApp object

CMatAgentMFCApp theApp;

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// CMatAgentMFCApp initialization
BOOL CMatAgentMFCApp::InitInstance()
{
//This ensures only one Agent is running
// The GUID is designed to be unique - if you reuse this code in another
app - use a different GUID!
if (CSingleInstance::Create (_T("E435FC13-3340-AA85-8CD7-556FF4A4EEBA"))
==
FALSE)
return FALSE;

CMainFrame* pMainFrame = new CMainFrame;
if (!pMainFrame->LoadFrame(IDR_MAINFRAME))
return FALSE;
m_pMainWnd = pMainFrame;

// For debugging (or something...)
pMainFrame->ActivateFrame();
return TRUE;
}

void CMatAgentMFCApp::OnRead( )
{
CListViewDlg dlg;
int nResponse = dlg.DoModal();
}

I have this:CListViewDlg.cpp

Thank you,
Do you have an example for that???

If you need to hide the dialog on occasion you should make it a
non-model or
modeless dialog and just hide that window. You can pop it back up any
time
you want. If you want to block the parent window you could simple
disable
it while the modeless dialog is "showed" and enable the main window
when the
user chooses to hide the dialog.
