CHECKBOX control
Defines a check box control. The control is a small rectangle (check box) that has the specified text displayed next to it (typically, to the right). When the user selects the control, the control highlights the rectangle and sends a message to its parent window.
The CHECKBOX statement, which can only be used in a DIALOGEX statement, defines the text, identifier, dimensions, and attributes of the control.
CHECKBOX text, id, x, y, width, height [, style [, extended-style]]
-

style

If you do not specify a style, the default style is
BS_CHECKBOX | WS_TABSTOP
.
