I did find the problem and you were right that the #include should work. &nbsp;The problem I had was that just including the View.h caused errors with recognizing the declaration of the CMyDocument. &nbsp;I included the CMyDocument class also to the View class and the problem resolved itself.<br />
<br />
The important part here is that I learn the correct way to do this. &nbsp;I apologize for submitting this trivial question. &nbsp;Thank you for your answer.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Basic as they come:<br />
<br />
I have created an App in Visual Studio and I'm using the following code to get the view:<br />
CFrameWnd * pFrame = (CFrameWnd*)AfxGetApp()-&gt;m<wbr />_pMainWnd;<wbr /><br />
CView * pView = pFrame-&gt;GetActiveView();<br />
<br />
The problem is that I have a function in MyView that I want to use. &nbsp;When I try and type cast pView, like ((CMyView*)pView)-&gt;Process<wbr />Input<br />
, I get the error:<br />
error C2065: 'CMyView' : undeclared identifier<br />
<br />
How do I get a pointer so I can call ProcessInput in the MyView class. &nbsp;Using the #include &quot;MyView.h&quot; doesn't work.<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />
