Designing and Creating a Record View

|  Overview |  How Do I |  FAQ |  Sample |  |  ODBC Driver List

You can create your record view class with either AppWizard or ClassWizard. If you use AppWizard, the wizard creates the record view class and a dialog template resource for it (without controls). You must use the Visual C++ dialog editor to add controls to the dialog template resource. On the other hand, if you use ClassWizard, you must first create the dialog template resource in the dialog editor, then open ClassWizard and create the record view class.

This information applies to both CRecordView and CDaoRecordView.
