Thread: Creating a Dialog Based Application without MFC

Since you are using the dialog as your main window then you could just use a modal dialog and avoid create a message loop with the DialogBox macro.

Blah, its been a long day. Thank you Quantum, of course I could do that. Revised code would look something like this for future reference:

Code:

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nShowCmd)
{
	return DialogBox(hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_CALC), NULL, CalcProc);
}

I think... I didn't look up the API but I think the CreateDialog and DialogBox functions have the same parameters. But what they do is quite different
