    Anyone know how to change the background color of a button using CColorDialog? Will this work? void CCustomButtonDlg::OnButtonFace() { CColorDialog dlg; dlg.m_cc.Flags |= CC_FULLOPEN | CC_RGBINIT ; dlg.m_cc.rgbResult = RGB( 255, 0, 0 ); dlg.DoModal(); HBRUSH hbr; if (GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_CUSTOM_BUTTON) { CDC *cDC; cDC = m_CustomButton.GetDC(); cDC->SetBkColor(dlg.GetColor()); hbr = m_brush; } UpdateData(); }

      Use the OnCtlColor message handler, see [^]. :)
