How can I tell my game to have a fixed Window Size ie, 800x600 so that it cannot be resized at all???

i've looked at almost all the display commands and found nothing.

well you can use this..

dbSetDisplayMode : void dbSetDisplayMode ( int iWidth, int iHeight, int iDepth )//set for 800 x 600

and this..

dbSetWindowOff ( void )

to kill the windowed mode so they can double click on the bar. If that wont get it you can easily use windows API calls. Works fine.. If you need to get the HWND you do

#include "globstruct.h" // Naturally!
then you can access is like this:

HWND WindowHandle = g_pGlob->hWnd;

I am thinking, instead of having to remake a new thread the EULA of GDK is kind of confusing.... Can someone please just simply in easy understanding do points like..

1. You cannot do this.
2. You can do this.
3. You cannot do this... etc. etc. the EULA scared me lol.... I don't know if i want to spend countless hours on my game and go to jail for illegal things. I want to be legal haha...
