'Prevent window from being clicked in while another window is open
On Windows, when a window opens on top of another window, the parent window will not be clickable, and will make a "ding" sound and its titlebar will flash. It will do this until the other window is closed. How do I recreate this in Win32?

Modal dialogs won't let the user interact with the parent window until they've been dismissed.
This document covers the Win32 API for creating modal dialogs.
