How to Change RadioButton Text in InitialUpdate ?
Just trying to change the text of a radio button at run time, using the following code; CButton* pRadioBtn = (CButton*)GetDlgItem( idc_Info1 ); pRadioBtn->SetWindowText( "New Text" ); Works fine if triggered by something (such as a button press), but doesn't appear to take effect when just placed in "OnInitialUpdate", just ignores it. How would I get it to trigger in the OnInitialUpdate section ? (or is there different code I should be using ?) -- Phil

It's literally just the code I quoted above in the OnInitialUpdate function of a child dialog, I've not put anything else in. Not sure how to go about that. I assume I replace "CVew" with something specific to my project, but I'm not sure what - the name of my project's 'view' obviously wouldn't work... -- Phil
