Hi Srishti,

Based on your description, the Russion characters which you specified in
your dialog box's control and menus will be displayed as garbled text while
the Russion text in the other window contents has no problem, please let me
know if I have misunderstood anything.

If so, I think the problem is you havn't specify the Russian language,
sub-language and codepage in the resource script before the corresponding
resource statements which show the garbled text in run-time.

In this scenario you can modify your application resource script(.rc file)
to specify the correct language, sub-language and codepage for these
resource statements in question, for example:
..
#if !defined(AFX_RESOURCE_DLL) || defined(AFX_TARG_ENU)  //if you define
the U.S. English as your projcet's Resource language
#ifdef _WIN32
LANGUAGE LANG_RUSSIAN, SUBLANG_DEFAULT
#pragma code_page(1251)
#endif //_WIN32
..
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

// Dialog

IDD_ABOUTBOX DIALOGEX 0, 0, 235, 55
..

By the wat, I suggest you can also take a look on the following newsgroup
threads, which discussed the similar issues:
