Because of the fixed size dialog, I think I have to specify the dialog's
size, don't I ?

I wasn't sure either. I used the frmBackup.xrc as a model to build
dlgReassignDropOwned.xrc. But the tab seems too much. I removed it...
but now it really looks like my previous dlgReassignDropOwned.xrc.

The XRC file attached is one with a dialog size specified, a modal
dialog, and no notebook/panel/tab widgets. But I'm not sure about the
correct sizing. XRCed shows me the dialog in a way and pgAdmin in
another one. I don't quite understand this.

I tried DialogBlocks a few times but I never was able to use it on my
Kubuntu.
