How do I create a second window in the callback procedure? Win32

I am trying to create a second window in case the dialog from my first window returns in a certain way. Unfortunately, if I call CreateWindowEx () from the callback process on the first window, it doesn't recognize the second HWND window. I also tried to define the first window in WinMain and make it visible in the callback, but it hasn't been able to recognize the HWND yet. Am I trying to get it wrong, or am I just missing something?

Edit 2: Intellisense (I'm in Visual Studio) claims "id hLoggedIn is undefined" as well as nCmdShow.
