1. Help with Win32Lib

I've been trying to add "dialog" style windows to Win32Lib. To do this, =
I've been trying to create modal windows with WS_POPUP and WS_CHILD =
attributes. That creates the popup window correctly - but it's *modal*.

Any ideas on how to go about doing this?=20

If not, I'll have to learn how "real" dialog windows work and code them =
"correctly" in Win32Lib. sad

Thanks!

I wrote asking for help on modal windows:

>...creates the popup window correctly - but it's *modal*.

Ooops. That should read:

>...creates the popup window correctly - but it's NOT *modal*.

If all else fails, I could probably trap focus events and re-route them =
to the "modal" window - but I'd prefer not to have to kludge it like =
that.

Thanks.

I'm certain Petzhold have the answer... don't ask me where, I'm still on
chapter 1.
