pMainFrame->ShowWindow(m_nCmdShow);

pMainFrame->ShowWindow(m_nCmdShow);

Hi,

How can i start my app maximized and prohibit resizing the app. So I can
have maximized and minimized but not in between.

This doesn't seem to work:

BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
if( !CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
   return FALSE;

// Modify the Window class or styles here by modifying the CREATESTRUCT
cs

cs.style =
   WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW |
   WS_OVERLAPPED | // main window
   WS_CAPTION | // title bar
   WS_MINIMIZEBOX | // minimise box
   WS_MAXIMIZEBOX | // maximise box
// WS_SIZEBOX |
   WS_MAXIMIZE | // create maximised
   WS_SYSMENU | // sysmenu and icon
   0x00;

// clear the resize box
cs.style = cs.style & (~WS_SIZEBOX);

return CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs);
}
