Hi, i''m trying to create a dialog box to get an ip adress to join a game from the player, and it''s turning out to be harder then i thought. I set up a message pump like this

  
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Name: DlgProc()

// Desc: Handles dialog messages

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

INT_PTR CALLBACK DlgProc( HWND hDlg, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam )
{
	switch ( msg )
	{

	case WM_INITDIALOG:
		SetWindowText( hDlg, WINDOW_NAME );

			break;

	case WM_COMMAND:

		switch ( LOWORD( wParam ) )
		{
		case IDCANCEL:
			EndDialog( hDlg, 0 );
			return TRUE;
		}
		break;
	}

	return FALSE;
}

  

and i call the DialogBox function in WinMain after all the direct X initialization etc.

  
DialogBox( hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE( IDD_GET_HOST_IP ), hWnd, (DLGPROC) DlgProc );
  

Anyways it compiles with no errors, but when it gets to the dialog box line nothing happens, it just skips over it with no popup. What am i missing?

Actually for debugging, im running in windowed mode right now.

I just tried moving the dialog box call to right after my WinInit function (before dx initilization stuff) and still nothing.

thanks for reply though
