Buttons and other controls are created with CreateWindow(Ex). If your button does not show up after using this function, please post the code and someone on the board will try to help.Quote:

You should really use a resource editor to place buttons and stuff on a dialog. It makes it a lot easier. Some compilers come with their own resource editors, but you can also find free ones on the internet.
if you want a nice book on learning the win32 api i would suggest the charles petzold book, programming windows 5th edition.
if you have some extra $$$ then its worth the money
I agree. It is highly recommended, and worth every penny.Quote:
