Unfortunately I am experiencing some problems with the OnInitDialog() function of dialog-based MFC applications in Visual Studio 2005. Some commands called from there don't get executed like they get on native Win32 applications.

For example:
GetDlgItem(IDC_SOME_ELEMENT)->SetWindowTextW(_T("Some text..."));
or
ShowWindow(SW_MINIMIZED)
Does anybody know why this is happening and what I could do against it? Thanks in advance.
