****************** PM QUESTION in OS2 2.0************************
I am a beginner in PM programming in OS/2 2.0. 


I am just trying to create a child window.  
I have created a main window with frame, sysmenu, scroll bar, 
minimize maximize buttons etc using WinCreateStdWindow.  
This window displays the company logo and product information.
I have used some simple graphics functions.  
As soon as the user hits any key, the next screen should be displayed.

The questions are given below:
(i) Do I have to create a child window or repaint the same window with the new textual information?
(ii) HOW SHOULD I CREATE A CHILD WINDOW? 
(iii) HOW SHOULD I REPAINT AN EXISTING WINDOW?
(iv)   I tried giving 
         WinPostMessage(hwnd, WM_ERASEWINDOW, (MPARAM) 0, (MPARAM)0);
in order to clear the window so that I can put new textual
information on the same window.  But the compiler complains
that WM_ERASEWINDOW should be declared.  ( I had defined INCL_WIN, INCL_GPI).





I WOULD HIGHLY APPRECIATE SOME HELP.

Thanks in advance.
