Opening a new window, C++

water-man

Morning all,

I have a program (written in Visual C++) which displays graphs.
When you open a txt document it displays the information in the form graphs (in a window).
Then I carry out some maths on this txt file to reduce data etc.
This new data is saved as Water-man.txt and I would like a new graph to be displayed in a new window when a button is clicked.
Here is what I have tried:

void CChildFrame::OnDoAnalysis()
{
CGuardianDoc *pDoc = GetGuardianDoc();
ASSERT_VALID(pDoc);
if(NULL != pDoc)
{
if(TRUE == Maths)
{
Maths = FALSE;
pDoc->Maths = FALSE;
pDoc->UpdateAllViews(NULL,2);
MessageBox("Data is now analysied");
CDal->OnOpenDocument("C:/Program Files/Water-man.txt");
}
}
}

In another class I have a function called OnOpenDocument. I had a trace statement in the code aswell so I know that I am making it into the If(TRUE == m_bAnalysis) loop.
Have also placed Trace statement in OnOpenDocument function to indicate to me that I have got from OnDoAnalysis to OnOpenDocument.

Also if I open the Water-man file from the menu bar it displays the graphs.

Any ideas??

Cheeers,

note:
"In another class I have a function called OnOpenDocument. I had a trace statement in the code aswell so I know that I am making it into the If(TRUE == m_bAnalysis) loop."

Should read:
In another class I have a function called OnOpenDocument. I had a trace statement in the code aswell so I know that I am making it into the If(TRUE == maths) loop.

I may have missed something, but is there a question in there somewhere?!

Hello,

Sorry for any confusion.
I am just wondering if what I have done looks crrect to you guys. And if you could see from code supplied why a new window does not open.

Or perhaps somone knows a way to open a new window
