The key here is to get the (*!(!&!$&!%) dialog editor to emit
a text file, instead of a .res file.  Do this by performing a
file saveas and give an explicit .dlg extension.

Now, edit the resulting text file and simply add the CLASS
statement to the header, with the name of a class you will
register for the dialog proc (instead of using the default
as usual).

Instead of returning true or false, your dialog proc will
call DefDlgProc() for any messages it does not handles.  It
will be a "true" window proc, with a long return value.

Also, since you will now register a class for the dialog
proc, you don't need to do a MakeProcInstance() (but make
sure the name is in your .def file!).  Essentially, you
are just using a regular window proc instead of a dialog
proc.

Oh, yeah.  Of course you need to create a MENU resource
and supply the name when you register your class.  I
haven't tried this personally, but in theory it should
work!
