Disabling dialog being displayed in Windows taskbar

[Kyzer]

Hi all,

I am writing a DLL which includes a function that may open a dialog.
When this dialog is opened, an additional icon and program description
is displayed in the Windows taskbar (similar to any other program that
is opened). What I am looking to do is ensure that when the dialog is
opened, the title of the dialog doesn't display in the Windows taskbar
(eg. opening the Font box in Microsoft Word doesn't display another
item in the taskbar with the name of that dialog). I assume that a
Windows API function would probably do this.

Thanks in advance,
Kyzer

Please consult Microsoft Windows API n.g. regarding this.
We discuss only the C++ core language and the libraries defined
by the standard.
