Hi, I have been reasontly been trying to figure out how to program custom
controls for dialog boxes (using Borlands OWL).  I have looked through 
hundreds of manuals and programming books and the most I they say is "You can
create your own custom controls" - But HOW?

Today I went to the bookstore at UBC to look for a book on this.  I saw another
person there reading though the MS Window manuals.  I asked him if he knew alot
about MS Win - he said "yes".  I told him what I was looking for and to my
surprise, he was trying to do the exact same thing I was!  He said that he also
could not find any information on this.

What I want to do is to be able to have ICONS / BITMAPS in a scroll box.

If anyone knows of any good books on creating Custom Controls using Borlands OWL
Please let me know, and if possible, post an example on how to do this.

Thank-you!
