A quick example:

First create a .rc file:

#include <windows.h>
#include "dmcdlg.h"

IDD_MAINDIALOG DIALOG 100, 100, 200, 80
STYLE DS_MODALFRAME | WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE | WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU
CAPTION "dmcdlg"
BEGIN
     DEFPUSHBUTTON   "OK", IDOK, 150, 5, 40, 14
     PUSHBUTTON      "Add", IDC_ADD_BUTTON, 150, 25, 40, 14
     EDITTEXT        IDC_EDIT_1, 5,  5, 100, 12, ES_AUTOHSCROLL
     EDITTEXT        IDC_EDIT_2, 5, 22, 100, 12, ES_AUTOHSCROLL
     LTEXT           "Result", IDC_STATIC_1, 5, 39, 100, 12
END

And a headerfile:
#define	IDD_MAINDIALOG	100

#define IDC_ADD_BUTTON 1001
#define IDC_EDIT_1     1002
#define IDC_EDIT_2     1003
#define IDC_STATIC_1   1004

Then a .c file:
#include <windows.h>
#include "dmcdlg.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

BOOL CALLBACK DialogFunc(HWND aDlg, UINT aMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    switch(aMsg)
    {
    case WM_INITDIALOG:
       return TRUE;
    case WM_COMMAND:
       switch(LOWORD(wParam))
       {
       case IDOK:
          EndDialog(aDlg, 1);
          return 1;
       case IDC_ADD_BUTTON:
          {
             int N1 = GetDlgItemInt(aDlg, IDC_EDIT_1, 0, TRUE);
             int N2 = GetDlgItemInt(aDlg, IDC_EDIT_2, 0, TRUE);
             char Text[128];
             sprintf(Text, "%d + %d = %d", N1, N2, N1 + N2);
             SetDlgItemText(aDlg, IDC_STATIC_1, Text);
          }
          break;
       }
       break;
    case WM_CLOSE:
       EndDialog(aDlg, 0);
       return TRUE;
    }
    return FALSE;
}

int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE aHinst, HINSTANCE aHinstPrev, LPSTR 
aCmdLine, int aCmdShow)
{
    WNDCLASS wc;

    memset(&wc, 0, sizeof(wc));
    wc.lpfnWndProc = DefDlgProc;
    wc.cbWndExtra = DLGWINDOWEXTRA;
    wc.hInstance = aHinst;
    wc.hCursor = LoadCursor(0, IDC_ARROW);
    wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH )(COLOR_WINDOW + 1);
    wc.lpszClassName = "dmcdlg";
    RegisterClass(&wc);

    return DialogBox(aHinst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_MAINDIALOG), 0, 
(DLGPROC )DialogFunc);
}

Then you can build it all with these commands:
dmc -c dmcdlg.c
rcc.exe -D__NT__ dmcdlg.rc
dmc -L/exet:nt/su:windows dmcdlg.obj dmcdlg.res

Forgot to tell; for this to work you have to name your files
dmcdlg.rc, dmcdlg.h and dmcdlg.c
