    That is becuase BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP macro is different in visaul c++ 6.0 and Visaul c++.Net. I changed the code in templdef.h to match with new defination. #ifdef _AFXDLL #define BEGIN_TEMPLATE_MESSAGE_MAP(theTemplArgs, theClass, baseClass) \ template \ const AFX_MSGMAP* PASCAL theClass::GetThisMessageMap()\ { return &theClass::messageMap;} \ template \ const AFX_MSGMAP* theClass::GetMessageMap() const \ { return &theClass::messageMap; } \ template \ AFX_COMDAT AFX_DATADEF const AFX_MSGMAP theClass::messageMap = \ { &baseClass::GetThisMessageMap, &theClass::_messageEntries[0] }; \ template \ AFX_COMDAT const AFX_MSGMAP_ENTRY theClass::_messageEntries[] = \ { \ I do not know much about templates either. Hopefully by posting here, somebody will correct me if I am wrong!

  Hi Yury,
  
    I liked the article very much. I am trying to use your class in my trial application but after calling SetBkColor() method, my edit box's color is not changing. What could be the possible reason? Am I supposed to handle any specific Window's Message?

• How to change the button style to BS_OWNERDRAW

  I currently workin with propertysheet in win32 (not MFC).
  I try to set the button style to BS_OWNERDRAW in order to redraw it with another color.

  I put the following code in the first Property Sheet winproc:

  static BOOL WINAPI FirstPageProc(HWND hDlg, UINT nMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam )
  {
  switch (nMsg)
  {
  case WM_INITDIALOG :
  {
  HWND hWndButton = GetDlgItem(GetParent(hDlg), IDCANCE);
  if( hWndButton )
  {
  LONG dwStyle = GetWindowLong( hWndButton, GWL_STYLE );
  dwStyle = dwStyle | BS_OWNERDRAW;
  SetWindowLong( hWndButton, GWL_STYLE, dwStyle );
  LONG dwStyle2 = GetWindowLong( hWndButton, GWL_STYLE );
  assert( dwStyle == dwStyle2 );
  }

  // etc ...

  I notice with spy that the style isn't keep by the button window.
  why ? Where should I set this code ?

  Thankx in advance,

  Sylvain
