Where are the option strings for an MFC Combo Box stored? <p>Given a resource file, containing a combo box definition, for a C++ MFC program, is there a way to programmatically obtain the option strings? </p> <p>When defining a dialog in the Visual Studio resource editor, one can specify the options with a <code>;</code>-delimited string. Where are these strings then stored? I understand as well that one can programmatically add strings to the dialog box during dialog init, obtaining them is another story. </p> <p>Nevertheless, my problem is that I don't have access to the dialog object, neither is it visible at the time I wish to obtain the option strings. Is that even possible?</p>
