I have a derived view from CTabView in my application. But for some reason MFC doesn't want to use that for handling Menu Commands. Can you give me a solution for this please.

Hello Pekka, I sincerely would like to thank you for your tutorials. They have really good contents and you explain them very well. I really appreciate that you take your time to prepare such videos for your followers. Here are my questions(maybe an idea for your future videos?)
1) Is there any such "message mechanism" possible for our custom classes? If yes, then
2) If a custom class can retrieve a message from CWnd inherited Class?
3) If a custom class can also send a message? (Qt, for example, allow custom classes to emit SIGNALS, if they are inherited from QObjects, Is there such possibility to emit/send messages from custom classes? Thanks in Advance!
