Summary: Dialogs are positioned in screen coords

Initial Comment:
Hi!
I'm new to this brave gnu world...i was developing 
under VisualC++ until now. There's the following 
problem with the win32 package (could be windres, 
too...): If I create a modeless dialog from my .rc-
file with

hDlg = CreateDialog(hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE
(CES_DIALOG), hWnd, diaProc);

, it should be positioned relative to its parent 
window hWnd. If I say SetWindowPos(hDlg, NULL, 0, 0, 
0, 0, SWP_NOZORDER | SWPNORESIZE), the dialog is 
placed to the top left edge of the screen instead in 
the top left edge of my window...(works under 
VisualC++). And about windres (perhaps off-topic, but 
I don't know yet where to post it): Menues are not 
shown if {} is used instead of BEGIN END. Furthermore, 
"Commands" like MENU and DIALOG are not case-sensitive 
under VC++, but are under windres. However, the 
positioning problem is the most important one...any 
workarounds/fixes?

Thanks,
Nicolas Weber
