   Imitating windows but with Direct X instead
  Can someone give me an example of utilizing direct X to create a text box that the user can enter data into and then the program sends it off to be processed. I would just use windows except that I want all the window elements (toolbars, textboxes, font) tp use my own graphics to keep the feel right. I obviously don''t want people playing to feel like they are word processing. Thus my problem. Just a simple example of an input box of some type will do, thank you. 
DirectX GUI System - your opinions pleasePersonally, when I tried this guy''s GUI out I swore he was running an emulator of windows on directx on windows.
