Hello everyone

I wonder how can I use a dialog box that I created as a resource, as applications main window that receives all the messages. I mean, when I create a window with CreateWindowEx it creates a blank window and I need to use subsequent CreateWindowEx calls to add controls etc and its a big headache. How to make it use a dialog resource instead?
