The WinDlgBox function loads and processes a modal dialog box and returns
the usResult value passed to the WinDismissDlg function. It is equivalent to
calling WinLoadDlg, WinProcessDlg, and WinDestroyWindow.
 
This function does not return until the dialog procedure calls the
WinDismissDlg function.
 
Parameter      Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
hwndParent     Identifies the parent window.
 
hwndOwner      Identifies the owner window. This window must be a descendant
               of hwndParent.
 
pfnDlgProc     Points to the dialog procedure.
 
hmod           Identifies the module that contains the dialog template. This
               parameter can be either the module handle returned by the
               DosLoadModule function or NULL for the application's module.
 
idDlg          Identifies the dialog window.
 
pCreateParams  Points to application-specific data that is passed to the
               dialog procedure as part of the WM_INITDLG message.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is the value specified in the usResult parameter of the
WinDismissDlg function, or it is DID_ERROR if an error occurred while trying
to load the dialog box.
 
Example
 
This example processes an application-defined message (IDM_OPEN) and calls
WinDlgBox to load a dialog box.
 
case IDM_OPEN:
    if (WinDlgBox(HWND_DESKTOP,
            hwndFrame,         /* handle of the owner         */
            OpenDlg,           /* dialog procedure address    */
            (HMODULE) NULL,    /* location of dialog resource */
            IDD_OPEN,          /* resource identifier         */
            (PVOID) NULL)) {   /* application-specific data   */
       .
       . /* code executed if dialog box returns TRUE */
       .
    }
