when i call this RegisterShellFileTypes() in App Class,
internally in this function defination having pointer of document class.
but dlg based application doesn't have doc class. so that,

pointer is becoming NULL.

void CWinApp::RegisterShellFileTypes(BOOL bCompat)
{
	ASSERT(m_pDocManager != NULL);
	m_pDocManager->RegisterShellFileTypes(bCompat);
}

but,it is working fine with SDI Application.
i have tried in one sample SDI application.

Yeah.... and what does SDI stand for? 'Single Document Interface'. It works in an SDI app because the SDI app has a document class, and fails in your dialog app because it doesn't have a document class.

It seems RegisterShellFileTypes() is to be used with SDI or MDI apps only.

The one that's missing from your project, i.e maybe IWshRuntimeLibrary!

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.
