What about changing the visible status of the window in PreCreateWindow ... Not tried it, but it should work.

I ran across the same problem. What I did was change the initial
location of the window in PreCreateWindow. If you want to later
display the window you will need to use SetWindowPos or MoveWindow
with the desired coordinates.
BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
if( !CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
return FALSE;
cs.x = 3000; //cause window to be offscreen so it's not shown initially
return TRUE;
}
