Without seeing some of your code I don't know either.

Are you calling MoveWindow after the dialog is created and displayed? Or are you calling it earlier? Basically, I am asking is there something else that's moving the window after you move it, but before it gets painted?

Sorry i have found the problem. !!

I was doing getclientrect(xyz) in onsize() and using xyz client rect in oninitialize() since oninitialize is called first and then the onsize the crect xyz had wrong coordinate.

Sorry for late reply and thanks for your support. :)
