Could someone show me an example of how to resize the client area of the window to a certain width and height? Using the WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW flag.

Have a look into the AdjustWindowRect function - it should do what you want.

Yep, siaspete is correct. AdjustWindowRect()/AdjustWindowRectEx() will resize the client area for you.

No they won't, but they will compute the right size for you to resize the window to to get a certain client area size.
