Customization of defaul buttons provided in PropertyPages

Neeraj Sinha

Hi By default a property page has three buttons ie BACK,NEXT and CANCEL. Along with these buttons,I want a FINISH button also in my Property pages. How to achieve it?

In wizard mode, the last property page in the set will change the 'next' button to 'finish' automatically. Check out the PSH_WIZARD and PSH_WIZARDHASFINISH values for the dwFlags value in the PROPSHEETHEADER[^] structure.

Well,it's correct that On the last wizard page,the NEXT button can be automatically changed to FINISH button,but I want the FINISH button on all the wizard pages right from it's first page along with the NEXT, BACK and CANCEL button at the same time.Is it possible to do so?

Setting the PSH_WIZARDHASFINISH value in the dwFlags member of the PROPSHEETHEADER should do that. If you are using the CPropertyPage/CPropertySheet MFC classes, you should be able to do something like this:

CPropertySheet sheet;
sheet.m_psh.dwFlags |= PSH_WIZARD | PSH_WIZARDHASFINISH;
sheet.AddPage(...); // add your property pages
sheet.DoModal(); // run the wizard

Alternatively, you can use the SetWizardButtons member function in the CPropertySheet class.

In order to show all 3 of Back, Next, and Finish, you gotta move the buttons. Here's the Microsoft Knowledgebase page with sample code: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q143210/[^]
