Irrlicht output => a Standard Window's Form??

Hi,
I would like to build an application using .NET 2003, and Irrlicht.

I was wondering if it's possible to render the output to say, a Windows Form, or a Windows Control, instead of popping up in a seperate screen as it does at this point in time? Also how do you get rid of the Dos Box that pops up when the application starts?

If any one has done this already could they show me an example?

Thanks!!

Peter

Change your project to a Windows Application instead of a Console application to get rid of the console window.

Hmmm,
I wonder if it's possible to render to a bitmap handle (HBITMAP) instead to a window ???

Thanks for the info,

so to be a bit more specific, if I change my application to a Windows Forms Project, then when I create a device does it automatically default to the Windows Form that it is created inside?

Otherwise if there were multiple Windows Forms in a project how would it know which one to render to?

Can anyone send me some example code?

Thanks,

Peter

Hello,
maybe I am not explaining it well enough.

I want to have a Standard .NET Window's Form, with the standard buttons etc, and I want my 3D graphics to be displayed on a Panel, or a control on that form, for example.

Can anyone tell me if this is possible???

Pleaeeeeaassssseee!!!!

Thanks
