problem with MFC and SDI

[Guest_imported]

here's my problem.

CFrameWnd* pMainWnd = (CFrameWnd*)AfxGetMainWnd();
CView* pView = pMainWnd->GetActiveView();

that is to access the active view in my SDI richeditview from a dialog box.
unfortunately i can't seem to access the functions of the class that i inherited (correct term?) from CRichEditView.

how do i access these functions and variables?

If that's what you want, shouldn't you cast the view like this?

CFrameWnd* pMainWnd = (CFrameWnd*)AfxGetMainWnd();
CRichEditView* pRichEditView =
(CRichEditView*)pMainWnd->GetActiveView();
