Can anybody advise me how to calculate the Dialog co-ordinates from a
window.

Originally I had a Child window painted in the client area of the MDI Window, with some controls on it. When ever the user changes the screen resolution, the child windoow is being adjusted automatically.

As per my new requirement I have decided to change child window to a
modal dialog. When I continue to use the child window coordinates for the dialog, the position and the size of the dialog is going beyond the client area of the MDI Window.

Can someone guide me how to convert the window coordinates to
dialog which should adjust automatically based on the resolution of the
windows.
