  BOOL Create( const char FAR* lpClassName, const char FAR* lpWindowName,
               DWORD dwStyle = WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
               const RECT& rect = rectDefault,
               const CWnd* pParentWnd = NULL,
               const char FAR* lpMenuName = NULL );
 
  Parameter      Description
 
  <lpClassName>  Points to a null-terminated character string that names
                 the Windows class (a WNDCLASS struct). The class name can
                 be any name registered with the afxRegisterWndClass
                 function or any of the predefined control-class names. If
                 NULL, uses the predefined default CFrameWnd attributes.
 
  <lpWindowName> Points to a null-terminated character string that
                 represents the window name. Used as text for the title
                 bar.
 
  <dwStyle>      Specifies the window style attributes.
 
  <rect>         Specifies the size and position of the window. The
                 rectDefault value allows Windows to specify the size and
                 position of the new CFrameWnd object.
 
  <pParentWnd>   Specifies the parent window of this frame window. This
                 parameter should be NULL for top-level frame windows.
 
  <lpMenuName>   Identifies the name of the menu resource to be used with
                 the window. Use MAKEINTRESOURCE if the menu has an
                 integer ID instead of a string. This parameter can be
                 NULL.
 
  Remarks
 
  Construct a CFrameWnd object in two steps. First invoke the constructor,
  which constructs the CFrameWnd object, then call Create, which creates
  the Windows frame window and attaches it to the CFrameWnd object. Create
  initializes the window's class name and window name and registers
  default values for its style, parent, and associated menu.
 
  Return Value
 
  TRUE if initialization is successful; otherwise FALSE.
