control-statements

Body of the DIALOGEX resource is made up of any number of control statements. There are four families of control statements: generic, static, button, and edit. For more information, see Remarks.

Certain attributes are also supported for backward compatibility. For more information, see Common Resource Attributes.

Remarks

The valid operations that may be contained in any of the numeric expressions in the statements of DIALOGEX are as follows:

Add ('+')
Subtract ('-')
Unary minus ('-')
Unary NOT ('~')
AND ('&')
OR ('|')

While each of these families of statements uses a different syntax for defining specific features of its controls, they all share a common syntax for defining the position, size, extended styles, help identification number, and control-specific data.
