SYMPTOMS
If you use classes derived from the common dialog classes (for example CFileDialog) in the MFC, DDX member variables do not get updated when you choose the "OK" button. The reason for this is that the base class "OnOK()", provided for these classes, does not call UpdateData(). For example, CFileDialog::OnOK() does not call UpdateData().
RESOLUTION
The workaround for this is to override OnOK() in your derived class and call UpdateData(). See CDialog::OnOK() in <drive>:\MSVC\MFC\SRC\DLGCORE.CPP for an example of how to set up the code and message-map entry.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the MFC, versions 2.0 and 2.5. This problem was corrected in MFC version 3.0, included with Visual C++ version 2.0.
