Dialog Box Design The dialog box in the figure has a title in the window's title bar, a series of user interface elements, and a row of command buttons. In dialog boxes, you can place command buttons alone or in a command button row at the bottom of the dialog box, as shown in Figure 109.

Working with Windows, Frames, and Dialog Boxes Dialog boxes are useful for soliciting input from the user in a way that does not obscure the information in the current window. An alternate way to pass multiple values between the original window and the dialog box is to concatenate those values into a single string, and leave it to the documents to parse the string and extract the values. Although the position, width, and height of a dialog box are typically set by the parent document, you can retrieve and change these settings from within the dialog box itself using the dialogLeft, dialogTop, dialogWidth, and dialogHeight properties. msdn.microsoft.com /workshop/author/om/windows_frames_dialogs.asp   (3322 words)

Dialog Box Programming Considerations A dialog box procedure is similar to a window procedure in that the system sends messages to the procedure when it has information to give or tasks to carry out. The function processes the messages if it is for the dialog box and returns a nonzero value to indicate that the message has been processed and must not be passed to the TranslateMessage or DispatchMessage function. A dialog box procedure can send a message to a control by supplying the control identifier and using the SendDlgItemMessage function, which is identical to the SendMessage function, except that it uses a control identifier instead of a window handle to identify the control that is to receive the message. msdn.microsoft.com /library/en-us/winui/winui/windowsuserinterface/windowing/dialogboxes/dialogboxprogrammingconsiderations.asp?frame=true   (4625 words)
