How I can change the background image of a window at runtime in WIN32?
I have created the window using CreateWindow(). Then I have a LoadImage Button which opens a model dialog box (open file dialog)… Now I want to use the file name returned by this dialog box as the image of the window.

There is no native concept for the window background, you have to manually paint your image, usually in the
WM_ERASEBKGND
message. If you are using MFC you can check this article: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/picturewindow.aspx
