Since the second property sheet is a child of the first you have the ability
from the first to call routines in it. I would just set up an
assign/refresh routine that you can call from the top level propertysheet
that fills it's own pages as needed and then, the page that has the other
propertysheet on it can do the same to the subsequent (embedded) sheets.

You can either assign the controls directly or have variables for them
(I.E., CStrings, ints, etc.) and then call UpdateData() to update the
controls as needed (this is especially true if you are only displaying the
information).

You shoudn't ever have to call DoDataExchage() directly and each
DoDataExchange() should only have control and variable calls for the
property page where it resides.

Hello everyone!

I have a multi-propertysheet/page (a propertysheet inside a
propertypage of another propertysheet) and depending on a XML file I
have I want to communicate between those pages to set/fill controls
and to set back the XML file with updates....
I guess the best way is using DoDataExchange and DDX/DDV.... but how
in this contest?...since I'm really new with MFC I'd like a hint about
how to proceed so I can understand even better DoDataExchange's
behavior...

Thanks to all
Ciao
