Child window
Hello,
I am trying to create a very simle application just to learn somethink new.
My aim is to create a child window which would clip on the edge of the parent window and will have its own caption...
I tried to put as DWORD dwStyle "WS_CHILD | WS_CAPTION" but it apparantly failed to work... The window was able to move and it did clip but it was disabled even if there was no parameter of "WS_DISABLED"
What parameters should I use in DWORD dwStyle so the created window is child and has its own caption?
If am I getting the whole aim wrong please correct me
Thank you for responses

I'm not sure exactly what you're aiming for, but I think this sounds like a MDI (multiple document interface) type solution. You might want to check out theForger's MDI tutorial and the MSDN MDI page.

definately sounds like MDI, which isnt simple, but isnt that hard either. Check out petzolds MDI example. I found it easy to rewrite to my needs.
