Have you considered just subclassing or deriving a class from CStatic and
just putting the control on the dialog (you can rename CStatic to your class
after it is added by the wizard). That way the control can be in the
Z-Order and created as part of the template creation process. Something
like this:

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to do, but maybe this examples will
spark some ideas for you.

The parent class (dialog) is CVisuBar. The static control (a control
derived from CStatic) is defined as a member variable(m_wndChild) ..
and the following code is used to create it .. I have created several
other controls, "CEdit", "CRichEditCtrl" and they all seem to work with
no probs ..

CVisuBar::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
if (CSizingControlBarG::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
return -1;

SetSCBStyle(GetSCBStyle() | SCBS_SHOWEDGES | SCBS_SIZECHILD);

if (!m_wndChild.Create(NULL,
WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|SS_SUNKEN|SS_WHITEFRAME,
CRect(0, 0, 200, 300),
this,
IDC_STATIC1))
{
TRACE("Unable to create the static edit control !!");
return -1;
}

if (!m_font.CreatePointFont(90, "Courier New"))
{
TRACE("Creation of font failed !!\n");
return -1;
}

SetFont(&m_font);
SetWindowText("");

return 0;
}
