Unable to add variable to Edit Control, Error: "object reference not set to an instance of object"

I'm new to Visual C++/MFC.
Trying to create simple dialog with few controls.
I want to access 'Edit Control's value in my code. For that, when I try to add variable name for 'Edit control'(or any other control) using "Add Control Variable" wizard, it gives error.
Am i missing something?
I have following packages installed already:
Please check whether you have DoDataExchange function added to your dialog class. Once I added this function, I am able to add variable using wizard.
This seems to be "MFC class wizard problem". Microsoft tracked and solved this in following forum:
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/208727/mfc-class-wizard-cant-add-control-member-variables.html
The latest version of visual studio should solve this.

How to pass an Input value to Action stage in Blue Prism?

I am testing a Launch NotePad application in Blue Prism. I need to pass "Hello World" text as Input Value from the Action Stage in Process Studio to Object Studio. I can't find the write Action in Action Properties. Please help.
If you'd like to have action from object visible in process studio, then you need to publish it.
Right click on the action tab in the object and choose "publish".

Inno Setup: Uninstall user dialog

I need a user dialog with yes/no option for the uninstall process ("also delete the
setting files in the userappdata folder?" )!
How is this possible?
Thank you in advance!

You will need to create a custom form (CreateCustomForm()) or use a simple message box (MsgBox()) in the CurUninstallStepChanged(usUninstall) event function.

InstallShield 2010 change title of the choose setup language dialog

I've inherited an InstallShield project and need to change the title of the setup language dialog. It is currently the same as every other dialog in the installer [Product name] - InstallShield Wizard. I've found the string I need in the localisation ini file, but cannot find the dialog anywhere inside the project, nor any options around the releases/build options.
use IFX_SETUP_TITLE to set only the Product Title.
If you have a custom dialog make sure you have resource id set to 50 or 51. If there is no resource ID with the value of 50 or 51, even using IFX_SETUP_TITLE will not change title name.

Visual C++: Dialog editor has forgotten what class is linked to the dialog template

I created a dialog and then created a class linked to it using the wizard. Somehow VC++ has forgotten this and now wants me to create a class whenever I double-click on a control in the editor to create a handler.
Are these mappings stored in a file I can edit, or does VC++ try to deduce this and I'm stuck with it?
In the header file for your dialog you should have a line like:
enum { IDD = IDD_ABOUTBOX_DLGTEST };
This specifies the resource ID for your dialog. Have you changed the ID for your dialog in the dialog Properties? Either change it back, or change the enum in the header file.
Note, any change might not get picked up by the wizard until you've done a re-compile.
As well as njplumridge's answer, also check that you have the right #include "projectname.h" file in all your classes.
You can sometimes have problems with MFC tools mapping if you change the name of the project but leave the projectname.h file unchanged.
But there's no extra mapping file to worry about, it's all inferred from the source code.
