    dialog box

    Im just learning about windows applications and i was trying to create a dialog box, but i keep getting an error: "127 winapp2.cpp
    parse error before `{'"
    (using Dev C++ 4)
    Heres the code i'm using to create the dialog box:
    Code:
    BOOL CALLBACK AboutDlgProc(HWND hwnd, UINT Message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
    {
        switch(Message)
        {
            case WM_INITDIALOG:
            {
            return TRUE;
            }
            break;
            case WM_COMMAND:
                switch(LOWORD(wParam))
                {
                    case IDOK:
                        EndDialog(hwnd, IDOK);
                    break;
                    case IDCANCEL:
                        EndDialog(hwnd, IDCANCEL);
                    break;
                }
            break;
    
            default:
                return FALSE;
        }
        return TRUE;
    }
    It might be a problem with another part of my code but if someone can see a problem with this let me know.

    EDIT: Found the problem...forgot a '}' in winproc
