All I want to do is, upon initialization of the box, send the floating point value of a parameter to an edit control. While the box is open the user has the option of changing that value. If he does, the new value must replace the old parameter. I have not even been able to do this successfully. There seems to be something fundamental that I am not understanding. I would like to eventually have the edit control tied with a scroll bar that is set to a range of valid floating point numbers for the particular parameter. The value in the edit control would change with scroll bar use and visa versa. Any help or suggestions (examples?) will be greatly appreciated. Don D. eabg020@orion.oac.uci.edu
