What you need to do is to look at the functions AdjustWindowRect and 
AdjustWindowRectEx.  They do what you're looking for -- you start with
a rectangle that is what the client area should be, and they change it to
reflect the entire window based on the styles you will use.

As a side note, I've had some issues of AdjustWindowRect not including the 
space needed for scroll bars, but kludged around it rather than crawling
through a bunch of code via the debugger.
