    Textboxes

    Where can I find stuff about making text boxes, and other things from the windows API.

    CreateWindow() doesn't only create your main window, it creates edit boxes and buttons to.

    So would I type something like this?
    CreateWindow(EDIT,username,NULL,0,0,100,20,NULL,NU LL,husername,NULL);

    Yeah close, something like this:
    Code:
    HWND edit=CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,TEXT("Edit"),"",WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE,
    x,y,iWidth,iHeight,hwnd,
    (HMENU)EDIT,hInstance,NULL);
    Just follow this link to see the syntax for CreateWindowEx.
