You did not specify the WS_CHILD style.

You do not need to call SetParent() as CreateWindow() has an hWndParent
parameter that you should be using instead.

    eh = CreateWindow("EDIT", NULL, WS_VISIBLE | WS_VSCROLL | ES_MULTILINE |
WS_BORDER | ES_LEFT, 0, 0, 250, 250, hWnd, NULL, hInst, NULL);

You do not need to call ShowWindow().  You already gave the the edit window
the WS_VISIBLE style, so it will automatically be visible in its Parent
window.

With all of that said, use this code:

    // Main window
    hWnd = CreateWindow("BeoWindow", "BeoWindow", WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, 0, 0,
250, 250, NULL, NULL, hInst, NULL);

    // Edit Box
    eh = CreateWindow("EDIT", NULL, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_VSCROLL |
ES_MULTILINE | WS_BORDER | ES_LEFT, 0, 0, 250, 250, hWnd, NULL, hInst,
NULL);

    ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_SHOW);
