Windows.h C++ Tutorial 4: Preforming Button Actions

This video is somewhat an extension of tutorial 3, which explained how to create a button. In this video, I will show you how to actually make that button run a segment of code when clicked.

If you have any questions please feel free to comment below and I will do my best to help you. I hope you enjoyed the video.

Hello, all the five videos you made helped out a lot!
I want to make a button where if you press it, a completely new window will show up...
can you tell me how? 

[cesariushervelazco]

Excellent tutorial. I'm having some issues assigning actions to some buttons What I'm trying to do is put my window (executable) in a folder with a bunch of other files, and open a specific file when clicking a specific button.

hi, I'm trying to make a simple calculator, but i face a problem on how to function the "Calculate"button that when the user click it run the math operation that user chose from the menu.

@ken minominogo im actually looking to do that in one of my own programs atm (its a side project, progress has been slow) ill get back to you in the event I get it working... If you don't want to wait the easiest fix I find is to just redraw the existing window as needed (let the user toggle back and forth), deleting the elements of the old window each time. You can also resize the window programmatically (SetWindowPos() will allow you to do that)

Thank you, really usefull.. but I have a big deal, I need to create another window when I clicked on the botton and so, I wanted to know if this is possible because.. I copied everything into the case 1 of command window and that actually did create the different bottons and things I wanted BUT over the already existing window... so what can I do? is it possible to make another window  without delating the existing one???

It is hard to write a program that clicks a button in another (commercial) program?

[EtemBavarian]

Do we need to create a handle for every new button like HWND button2; HWND button3; etc?

[stanchannelu]

Excellent bro this tutorials helped me a lot! Thanks!

[HoyCheung]

Can you tell me why the handle must be declared at Global Variables section?
I tried to declare it in the while loop. The compiler complains initialization of [variable] is skipped by 'case' label
