Hi,
I've created a dialog but I don't want the user to be able to move the dialog. How do I do it?
Thank you
Hadas

I do not know if there is an API for you to handle that.
Maybe you can subclass the window and handle the WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING message ?

If you create the dialog so that it has no title bar and cannot be resized, then there is no way for the user to move it. You could still put a color band at the top so it sort of looks like a title bar.
