I use a search process in many places throughout my application that uses an edit, a list box, and a check box.

What's the best way to group these three controls together so they can be created and accessed consistently from many different places? The three controls are always within dialogs but are never the only controls on the dialog.

Can you put a dialog within a dialog so the search controls can reside in a DLL? Or should I be exploring ActiveX?

Thanks in advance.
