So are you saying that the title of this message "unresolved external symbol public: long __thiscall IWshRuntimeLibrary::IWshShortcut::Save(void)" has been fixed?

no,
IWshRuntimeLibrary::IWshShellPtr raw_CreateShortcut() works fine before the missed link LNK2001.

I think I need to import some dll file, but I don't know which one.

I have looked at MSDN but cannot find a direct reference to this library. I can only suggest you go back to your documentation and recheck the format of the Save() command.

I think you can use GetSystemMetrics() to get screen size and use SetWindoPos() API to change the size of your dialogbox.

I suggest you take a look at this section on CP[^]. It contains some classes that helps you positioning the controls of a window when it is resized.

How are you drawing the image and which control are you using?
The StretchBlt function can stretch an image.

You can only display text in a text control.
For an image, you will need a picture control.

Why don't you simply place a text box in the middle and a picture control at the top of the dialog?

Use LoadImage to load the image.
Here you can specify the width and height needed.

Associate a CStatic object to the picture control.
Now use CStatic::SetBitmap to show the bitmap.

What if you "printed" the text on the image so that they are rendered together (as one)?

The text control has a property called Transparent.
Set this to True.

I guess you need to select that particular font into the device context.
