Dialog based application
When one creates an MFC Dialog based application, the resultant executable
is very small and compact (eg < 40 K), but the runtime window is static -
it cannot be minimised or resized.
Can someone advise me what I must add to the project to make the window at
least minimisable. (Perhaps it is better to choose an SDI application at
the outset ? I was hoping to avoid the big overheads.)

Hi,
Open the dialog in resource editor. Goto the dialog properties->
Styles. You will find minimize and maximize box toggles. Enable them.

Hi!
In MS VC++ use:
project/resources/Dialog Properties/Styles/check "Minimize Box"
