Re: Dialog AND a custom Toolbar

I have read the document from MSJ:

Unfortunately, this wonderful UI update mechanism doesn't work for
dialogs-at least not automatically. You have to hook the pieces up
yourself. Fortunately, it's easy. All you have to do is handle
WM_KICKIDLE, a private MFC message that MFC sends whenever the dialog
is idle (analogous to the app's OnIdle handler) to call
UpdateDialogControls yourself.

LRESULT CTabDialog::OnKickIdle(WPARAM wp,
                               LPARAM lCount)
{
    UpdateDialogControls(this, TRUE);
    return 0;
}

CWnd::UpdateDialogControls sends the magic CN_ UPDATE_COMMAND_UI
message to all the dialog controls, the upshot being that now
ON_COMMAND_ UPDATE_UI handlers suddenly work for dialogs.

I have added the messagehandler for OnKickIdle but it is never called,
als the UPDATE_COMMAND_UI handler is never called, am i forgetting
something, do i have to extra stuff to make this work ?

The only thing i have added is this handler in my dialog:

LRESULT CClientDlg::OnKickIdle(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
UpdateDialogControls(this, TRUE);
    return 0;

}
