Q: How to add a minimize/maximize button into your dialog?
A:

• At design time: use the dialogs properties in the resource editor.
• At runtime: override the 'OnCreate()' function like this:
• int CYourDialog::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
  {
  if(CDialog::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
  return -1;
  // TODO: Add your specialized creation code here
  SetWindowLong(this->m_hWnd,
  GWL_STYLE,
  GetWindowLong(this->m_hWnd, GWL_STYLE) | WS_MINIMIZEBOX | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX);
  return 0;
  }
