   Do you have some (preferrably MS origionated) documentation to support that   
   ?   
      
   The dialog in question is, for all intents and purposes, a child of the   
   dialog that created it (they share the same message-loop).

   Thank you.   But no, its not.   
      
   I remember having read something about a "control parent" in relation to a   
   tab control.  Never used it that way though.

   You see a problem.  I don't.  If you could explain that problem I would be   
   much obliged (it would give me a chance not to stumble into it).   
      
   Maybe you're thinking of sending such messages (containing pointers to data)   
   to another process ?
