how do i create an edit in a dialog? i know for a button you do
| CODE |
| PUSHBUTTON "click me!",clickit,10,10,50,15 |
but i cant figure out how to do an edit.... i suppose maybey with a call to createwindowex but that doesnt seem right in dealing with the .rc file and stuff......

The thing I like from dialogs (in VS) is that you drop the control, resize it, add the id, etc... easy to be hacked..
And making it from CreateWindow(Ex) isn't the exception, but at least Resource Hacker won't be happy :)

though resource changers can access all ur dialog resource, they can just change positions of certain objects. if they delete them the program simply wont work. atleast they dont have access to the source code :).

Well when there are programs like this it doesnt matter

there are Exe packers that can't be expanded by default
it would protect your exe from beeing disassembled by the less hardcore hackers
ofcourse a good hacker can reverse engeneer teh stub code ;)

dialogs reduce development time, though you can use cwex if u want. visual basic has a fast development process not because of it runtimes, but because it uses dialogs. though the runtime slow down vb apps drastically.

If you want to use Dialogs and don't want your prog to be decompiled do what C-man said use an EXE-packer works on ResHacker and most other programs
InfoProducts - December 28, 2004 04:04 AM (GMT)
use dialogs or not, ur program can be disassembled.

Just wondering, well, how much would you really want people out of this dialog? :lol: Well, hopefully more then I do because I think they are affraid of my dialogs/windows controls orginization. :lol:
