I don't know what the fascination is with main dialog windows.  They have
too many caveats to be worth the trouble (screen resoltion being the worst
-- please try 640x480 through 1600x1200 before releasing it),and writing a
real client window with push-buttons et al is really not that hard.

anyway....what you are after is a WinLoadMenu() followed by a WM_UPDATEFRAME message.
