Thread: edit box affecting displaying of text?

Basically i had a problem before where is i called i function by a button and then deleted the button there would be a problem when i try and write text over where the old button used to be. I solved that by using ShowWindow() instead of DestroyWindow(). But now in the function if i create a button or edit box, the problem happens again.

In the code below delete the edit box creation in the function and the problem goes, but how can i solve this text not appearing properly.

Code:

#include <windows.h>

Ps. Sorry if there are any errors, I had to write this in the libruary where there are no compilers and where the internet connection is slow.
