Hi Michael,

I guess, there is a simple solution to your problem. Probably your dialog box 
was created with WS_DLGFRAME. If so, you ran into a Windows bug. Dialog boxes 
with WS_DLGFRAME may not have a menu since the menu is painted incorrect. The 
same refers to using a minimize box.

The best solution is to use WS_BORDER instead of WS_DLGFRAME. OK, the box will 
look slightly different, but messing around with painting the non-client-area 
of the box is far more complicated.

so long
