Hi,
I've just started my latest program as a Dialog Application. All OK so far, except
that I want to draw a circle or ellipse, and it doesn't show. Is this possible,
or not? If not, I suppose I can always go back to a normal window app

I don't think you can draw on a dialog just like you can't set the color of the dialog.
The workaround in the past has been to create a captionless child window on the dialog(the same size as the client area of the dialog) and do your coloring and drawing on it.
To me if you are going to draw on your main form it doesn't make sense to use a dialog.
Now if it was a modal dialog as part of a bigger program and you needed/wanted to draw/color then it makes sense.
To me anyway.

Thanks, Larry,
I thought that maybe that was the case. I'll just move to a normal window, then,
and swap things about a bit - well, a lot!
