Can anybody please forward me some simple source code that opens a
Window, prints some text on the window, then waits for the user to close
the window before ending the application.

I tried using the CreateWindow API function, but this just results in a
crash...

I think the problem is with...

LRESULT CALLBACK _export WindowProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam,
LPARAM lParam)

this will not compile as _export is undefined, and without we get those
nasty errors.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris
