This has got nothing to do with OpenGL

In WinAPI, window style flags are what you''re looking for. Check out WS_MAXIMIZEBOX.

Two possibilities:

1) simulate an edit control (when the user types something, display it at a specific place on the screen). Maintain an internal buffer of what should be displayed and there you have it.
2) use a Windows built-in control type (edit control) - in this case "OpenGL acceleration" of the control is a bit tricky
