    Dialog question w/ win32 API

    ok the function to create dialog box requires an hInstance param.
    Is there a way I can get this handle from inside the dialog procedure function. Thanks...

    Try:
    Code:
    long hInstance = GetWindowLong(NULL, GWL_HINSTANCE);
    good luck

    also..

    HINSTANCE hInst=GetModuleHandle(0);

    works just about anywhere.
