You can pass it in the constructor of the dialog class.

Ok, by how to get the pointer to Document object. The owner window of that dialog is CMainFrame, no? I can't use GetDocument() directly...

At last I'm using a pointer defined in dialog class that is pointing to a document object. Then before call DoModal() function the View pass the value to the initiated dialog.

Just include the header of your document class in the header of your dialog class. It doesn't matter who "owns" the document, if you have a pointer to the class you can pass it to anyone you want to.

As I remember in MFC applications you can use functions getDocument or GetDocument, I do not remember exactly. Ion Filipski

To get the active document:

    CFrameWnd *pMainFrame = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CFrameWnd, AfxGetMainWnd());
    CFrameWnd *pActiveFrame = pMainFrame->GetActiveFrame();
    if (pActiveFrame == NULL)
        return NULL;

    return pActiveFrame->GetActiveDocument();

Ok try the following:

CxxxxxDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();
pDoc->(object, e.g. m_StockPriceSet);

where xxxx is the name of the class you derived from MFC CDocument class,
