Use ModifyStyleEx(0, WS_EX_TRANSPARENT); for control. As well as you have to handle the OnCtlColor of the Dialog and Return the NULL brush for controls Knock out 't' from can't, You can if you think you can :cool:

For Static Controls See Here[^] (You can also do this) For a radio button try this in OnCtlColor as A_Laxman suggests: if(pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID()==IDC_RADIO1 || pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID()==IDC_STATIC) //IDC_RADIO1 is controlID for radio button hbr=(HBRUSH)GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH); Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them. ;-) _AnShUmAn_
