The formutilites class is meant to be used with code that makes use of Windows forms (aka Winforms). A tutorial on winforms can be found here:

If you would like to create NX style dialogs for your programs, you will need the "block styler" license. This lets you use a graphical interface to design a new dialog and generates the dialog framework code for you. You then add your own code to customize the dialog actions.
