Hey all,

Not using MFC, trying to do something ridiculously simple in a Win32 C++
project.

I got a dialog box I created with the Visual Studio resource editor, and
inside it there are two labels (aka static text boxes).

After I pop up the dialog box, I want to change the contents of them in
runtime.

First off, any way I get the window handle of those labels using their
resources ids? If so, how? If not, what's the best way?

Secondly, how do I set the caption's of these static text boxes?

And does anyone know of any NON-MFC Win32 API programming links/tutorials
that would help me along (with Visual Studio .NET would be a plus)?

Thanks much,
    Mark
