Question

I was wondering if it is possible to add a menu resource to a dialog box. It would be easier to “design” my applications layout in multiple dialog boxes rather than the standard window, however, I will need to be able to add a menu. I would preferably be able to do this through a resource defined menu, however, I have no objections to doing it programmatically.

Right now my application is just starting like this:

DialogBox(hInst,MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_DIALOG_UPDATE),NULL,(DLGPROC)updateTitle);

in the main function.

Thanks for your help!

Call SetMenu(hDlg, hMenu) during WM_INITDIALOG.
