Afaik, you can not have a DCL dialog open AND continue working with AutoCAD.

Everything is "locked" except for the dialog as the system is waiting for it to close. (the dialog check is actually an endless loop inside your lisp, which can (only) end if certain conditions are met.)

It's not possible to create such a dialog with DCL. I would suggest you check out OpenDCL. It has both a GUI, used to create your dialogs and a runtime env. for AutoCAD.
