Re: Using OnTimer

You have to specifically handle the WM_TIMER message in your dialog box

Here is what you need to do:

in the h file

afx_msg void OnTimer(UINT);

in the cpp file:

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyDialog,CDialog)
    ....
    ON_WM_TIMER()
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

void CMyDialog::OnTimer(UINT nEventID)
{
    CDialog::OnTimer(nEventID);
}

VStudio write all this code for you when you ask it to handle the WM_TIMER
message from the property window for that class.
