How do I add controls to dialogs?

[Mtlca401]

I have visual studio and know how to add controls that way, but would like to learn how to add controls using another compiler that is not visual based. The other compiler I have is bloodshed devC++. I have managed to add a button but that's it. I am looking for tutorials mainly, but anything would probably do. I have done a lot of searching too and can't find anything.

thanx

Good Luck! I also have DevC++, that was what I used before I got Visual Studio. The code is confusing. I would stick with Visual Studio.

Well I just wanted to learn how to do it for my own knowledge. Luckily I did figure it out. I am just having problems right now with checkboxes and radio buttons. I don't know how to make the label for them. Other than that the code for the controls is quite easy.

How can I add a Status bar and a Toolbar into my window? I have looked at

http://www.winprog.net/tutorial/app_three.html,

but it doesn't make any sense.

winprog.org has some of the best, most simplistic examples for several of winapi's (gui) most common programming aspects. if you don't understand that example, perhaps you should study up some more on the in-general and basics of the windows api, such as how to create windows, overview of common controls, etc?
