From MSDN: An application sends a DM_SETDEFID message to change the identifier of the default push button for a dialog box. DM_SETDEFID wParam = idControl; // identifier of new default push button onwards and upwards...

It's already a method of the CDialog class: CDialog::SetDefID() this->SetDefID(IDC_BUTTON1); works just fine. :) If I write code in my sleep, does that make me brilliant, or just a lazy programmer? My articles www.stillwaterexpress.com BlackDice - the programmer formerly known as bdiamond

Default button? Check the button properties.

Work hard and a bit of luck is the key to success.

Use resource eidt ,set the button default.

no, if you did have a look at what i said previously, i've already done this, and, it doesn't change nothing else but the style of the buttons, not the effective default action...

Oh you did. Try not to use any style on that button. This might be a bug.

Maybe you delete the IDOK button, and it is the default button. Start over again, and change the IDOK button as your default button. Got the idea?

sorry but... you're fully wrong ! i need to change the default button programmatically because the default button will change in time depending on several events... you've got it now ?
