  Actually, by the time that WM_INITDLG comes along, the dialogue has been
  completely created.  WM_INITDLG is sent by WinLoadDlg as a substitute
  for WM_CREATE, because WM_CREATE is sent before WinLoadDlg can do any
  subclassing.  WinLoadDlg works roughly like this internally :

      HWND EXPENTRY WinLoadDlg ( ... params ..., DlgProc )
      {
          Data = LoadResourceFromFile ( module, ID ) ;

          for ( all controls in the resource data ) {
              WinCreateWindow ( ... the control ... )
          }

          WinSubclassWindow ( hdlg, DlgProc ) ;
          WinSendMsg ( hdlg, WM_INITDLG, ... ) ;

          return hdlg ;
      }
