New to this and could use some help/input

[Gintaras]

Let the dialog have a dialog procedure. Also known as "smart dialog".
Let the button have other id, not 1.
Move the part of the macro that sends keys etc to a new macro or #sub.
When the button clicked, start the macro using mac. Get edit control values with str.getwintext and pass them to the macro using function parameters.
