Hello. You can use the CFormView Class .The FormView have a look like Dialog.You can place a RichEdit control on the top of form view and place a Edit control on the bottom of form view. Good luck!:)

ummmmm i hate to rain on ur parade man (as the man said) but theres just a little more to a chat program than an edit window and a few buttons :omg:
