You can use the InetPton function to convert it to a binary address, that can then be used to set the control.

char ip_address_string[] = "127.0.0.1";
DWORD address;

if (LOBYTE(LOWORD(GetVersion())) >= 6)
{
    IN_ADDR address_struct;
    InetPtoN(AF_INET, ip_address_string, &address_struct);

    address = (DWORD) address_struct.S_un.S_long;
}
else
{
    address = (DWORD) inet_addr(ip_address_string);
}

Now you can use address to initialize the control.
