subject: Writing directly to a dialog

Hi All...

Is there anyway (not that it's absolutely necessary) to dynamically add
text to a dialog?  I have tried using WinGetPS / GpiCharStringAt and
WinDrawText / WinReleasePS with no luck.  After many hours of scouring my
somewhat limited textual resources, I happened upon WinSetWindowText (and
placing blank windows with identifiers in the resource file).

The more I learn about PM, the more I like it!  Where I, before, found it
intimidating, I now enjoy it.  In some instances, I find it easier than any
text-mode programming I've done.
