	The Old New Thing : What is the HINSTANCE passed to CreateWindow and RegisterClass used for?
		The scratch program is always in the main EXE, so it should pass the HINSTANCE of the main EXE as well.
		Raymond has made many, many posts on the behaviour of the dialog manager and modal loops; if you read those posts you should be able to work out how to emulate the dialog's window procedure.
		The MSDN doc for CreateWindow also incorrectly states that if the x parameter is set to CW_USEDEFAULT, the system ignores the y parameter.

		The CreateWindow function builds a window based on a window class created with the RegisterClass function or based on a predefined control class.
		CreateWindow takes several parameters for window location, window size, window style and so on.
		With CreateWindow you can use predefined window classes such as button controls, checkbox controls, radio button controls, static text controls, edit controls, scrollbar controls and more (see also BB1 WINDOWS CONTROLS).

	Tutorial 1:Using CreateWindow
		CreateWindow returns an object of type TGadget which we have chosen to call MyFirstWindow.
		What we now see is that the size of 320 x 240 that we have specified in the CreateWindow parameter is actually now specifying the size of the central panel (the client) of this window.
		The other items like the status bar, the menu bar, the borders as well as the titlebar now is added on top of the central panel thus resulting in a bigger window being created.

	VCL Topics: Introduction to Windows Controls
		If you are programmatically creating a VCL control, to specify that it is a child, we saw that you must pass the name of its owner to the control’s pointer and you must assign the name of its parent to the Parent property.
		If you are using the CreateWindow() or the CreateWindowEx() functions, to set the left distance, pass the desired value as the X argument.
		If you are creating the control using the CreateWindow() or the CreateWindowEx() functions, specify the value for the distance from the left border of the parent window to the left border of the control as the nWidth argument.

		Through CreateWindow the application controls minor aspects of the new window, such as its size, position, and appearance.
		This parameter should not be confused with the class style, passed to RegisterClass through the WNDCLASS structure when the new window class is registered.
		While the class style determines some of the permanent properties of windows belonging to that class, the window style passed to CreateWindow is used to initialize the more transient properties of the window.

		The height and width parameters are set to 0, ==>icon size is determined by the icon resource data.
		Use the fact that during a WM_CREATE message, the lParam is a pointer to a structure of type CREATESTRUCT that has an hInstance member.
		When a control is selected with the mouse, Windows sends a WM_COMMAND message to control's parent window; the control's ID value is placed in the low order word of the wParam of the message, so we can do a switch/case on LOWORD(wParam) to find out which button it was.

	Ramblings » Blog Archive » How to use CreateWindow to make a dialog
		So one of the challenges that I’ve faced with working on the RB framework is how to mesh the Win32 APIs with the REALbasic way of doing things to accomplish a goal.
		When you call CreateWindow, the window manager starts firing off messages left and right, before the call has even completed.
		By using the system’s WndProc until CreateWindow returns, you’re going to miss out on messages you may not want to miss out on.

	Win32 Tutorial - Lesson 7: Anatomy and Characteristics of a Window
		A window is primarily distinguishable from the rest of the screen by its being surrounded by borders.
		In the programming world, this word or group of words is also referred to as the caption.
		When you are a window using the CreateWindow() or the CreateWindowEx() functions, you can specify the caption by passing a string to the lpWindowName argument.

	CreateWindow
		It specifies the window class, window title, window style, and (optionally) the initial position and size of the window.
		A pointer to a value to be passed to the window through the CREATESTRUCT structure passed in the lParam parameter the WM_CREATE message.
		When using CreateWindow to create controls, such as buttons, check boxes, and static controls, use lpWindowName to specify the text of the control.

		So there is a little problem, but with CreateWindow you can easily scroll images in NS Basic.

		All you have to do is make sure the button has the style BS_BITMAP either in the rc file or CreateWindow().
		To set the bitmap in the button you would call: SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hdlg, ID_BTN1), BM_SETIMAGE, IMAGE_BITMAP, LPARAM(hbitmap)); The only other step is to size the button at runtime to the size of the bitmap.
		This is an easy way to store a list of images to be inserted into the listview.

		Call a grid function directly with a CreateWindow message to create one grid of their grid type in a window just big enough to contain the grid.
		CreateWindow messages must be processed in message processing subroutines within grid functions, so no standard message functions are provided for CreateWindow.
		If the grid is attached to a window, that is, it was created by CreateWindow, the window containing the grid is also destroyed and removed from the display.

	Registering a Class in a DLL
		If a class is registered in a dynamic-link library (DLL) with the RegisterClass() function and an application uses this class when creating a window or a dialog box, then the CreateDialog() or CreateWindow() call in the application will fail.
		After registering the window class using the CS_GLOBALCLASS class style, calling CreateWindow or CreateDialog from an application should work correctly.
		However, if the intent is to have the DLL own the message queue, this is not possible.

	Long Parameter List
		You can group stuff that belongs together in parameter object, but not all parameters in a LongParameterList can be sensibly crammed together in parameter objects.
		On the other hand, if you had 4 separate variables or constants like the above, or if you cared about performance, say you wanted to draw tons of rectangles in a game, than the unfolded variables may be arguably better.
		Microsoft APIs are rarely that consistent (the Win32 API was formed by accretion more than by design).

		Dialogs are part of the resource section of the PE header together with all the strings, bitmaps, icons etc. This makes it possible to use a resource editor to change the appearence of a dialog without recompiling the code.
		So dialog boxes are created with CreateDialog or CreateDialogEx and all the buttons and other windowed controls on the dialog are created with CreateWindow or CreateWindowEx.
		try debugging the dialog that displays correctly, basicaly put a bp on both createwindow and createwindowex functions and when the program breaks simply examine the arguments passed to the function.
