Using resources for main window

[crillegs]

First of all Im new to all of this Windows Form Applications in C++, as I've only worked with Console Projects in C++ before.

A few days ago I started reading on Windows forms, quite intense, and now I'm "converting" an old network winsock console program into a Windows Form.

When I started learning, all the tutorials I could find used examples, when showing Push-Buttons and Textboxes, from Dialogs, but never placed any in the main window.

When they created a dialog window, it could look something like this:

IDD_TOOLBAR DIALOGEX 100, 100, 240, 180
STYLE DS_MODALFRAME | WS_POPUP | WS_CAPTION
EXSTYLE WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW
CAPTION "My Dialog Toolbar"
FONT 8, "MS Sans Serif"
BEGIN
    LTEXT        "1st Number",IDC_STATIC,7,7,66,10
    EDITTEXT     ID_EDIT_1,73,7,60,12,ES_LEFT
    LTEXT        "2nd Number",IDC_STATIC,7,24,66,10
    EDITTEXT     ID_EDIT_2,73,24,60,12,ES_LEFT
    PUSHBUTTON   "Calculate",ID_CALC,35,45,50,12
END

Which is a nice and simple code, on how to make a Dialog with 2 Textboxes, 2 Textfields and 1 Pustbutton.

But in order to write it in the same "code-type" as above, I have to write it as I dialog which I initialize and open. Is it in any way possible to place Textboxes, Pustbuttons etc. in the mainwindow, and "specifying/declaring" these in resource-like code as above?

Please tell me if you don't get what I mean.
