It has one control , a simple Button1 with it set to default.  I would like
to have the screen painted as normal and start executing code in the
OnButton1() function.

Everything I try, executes the OnButton1 code, but does not draw my main
dialog screen first.

Hummmmm, I'm sure there will be other questions but for now, I'm stumped.

Thanks,

But where do I get that message to post?

I went looking for something in the Class Wizard and nothing looked
familiar.

Do you mean something like ON_BN_CICKED(id,memfxn) ?

To send a button click message, use this in the CDialog class

SendMessage(WM_COMMAND, MAKEWPARAM(IDC_BUTTON1, BN_CLICKED), (LPARAM)
GetDlgItem(IDC_BUTTON1)->GetSafeHwnd());

Hope this helps.

Max
