After re-reading the previous help message concerning the use of STRING
resources, I found that it wasn't very specific... So lets try again!
I want to be able to create a string table and use the entries as replacements
for the usual "static text" used in a dialog box for controls. For example,
in my About... dialog box, I would like to have a STRING resource be used for
all the information that is displayed.

(in resource file...)
STRINGTABLE
BEGIN
IDS_ABOUT_CAPTION, "About"
IDS_COPYRIGHT, "Copyright (c) 1990"
IDS_OK, "Ok"
END
Does anyone know if it is possible (...and if so, how...) to write these
string resources to a dialog box? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
