Since I only occasionally use C++, I'm still back at Borland C++
version 2.0.

I'm trying to modify the text in an edit control attached to
a dialog box.

Instead of seeing the new text, I just get a blank edit 
control.

The call I'm making looks like:

	SetDlgItemText(hDlg,FILENAME,lpstr);

just like in Petzold.  (If I don't make this call, the 
initial text DOES appear - the call blanks it out).

Could this be a compiler/library bug?  If not, what might I
be doing wrong?
