Its placed with SetWindowText(m_strDisplay) and CString m_strDisplay; // Holds the string that gets displayed.

The "text box" seems to be coded in CP1252 (not in 1251)...
Can you put _this_ string at a button there (at the surface) properly ? :)

The "text box" is in both English and Russian resource files. Because Im beginner in this case´, how can I code the "text box" in cp1251?

0. OS->NonUnicodeLaguage=Russian
1. In your .rc file, opened as text:
...
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Russian resources
#if !defined(AFX_RESOURCE_DLL) || defined(AFX_TARG_RUS)
#ifdef _WIN32
LANGUAGE LANG_RUSSIAN, SUBLANG_DEFAULT
#pragma code_page(1251)
#endif //_WIN32

IDD_RUSTEST_DIALOG DIALOGEX 0, 0, 320, 200
STYLE DS_SETFONT | DS_MODALFRAME | DS_FIXEDSYS | WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE | WS_CAPTION
EXSTYLE WS_EX_APPWINDOW
CAPTION "RusTest"
FONT 8, "MS Shell Dlg", 0, 0, 0x1
BEGIN
DEFPUSHBUTTON "OK",IDOK,209,179,50,14
PUSHBUTTON "Cancel",IDCANCEL,263,179,50,14
LTEXT "12,78 M/C",IDC_TEXT,54,53,57,24
END

STRINGTABLE
BEGIN
IDS_STRING129 "%.02f M/C"
END

...
2. in your .cpp :
GetDlgItem(IDC_TEXT)->SetWindowText("34,76 M/C");
or :
char szBuffer[MAX_PATH];
::LoadStringA(NULL, IDS_STRING129, szBuffer, MAX_PATH);
CString cszText;
cszText.Format(szBuffer, 12.98);
GetDlgItem(IDC_TEXT)->SetWindowText(cszText);

Try also to transform your application to UNICODE,
it will be more comfortable :)
