To have both, you can show the Finish button and move the Back/Next buttons. MORE INFORMATION ================ When a Wizard-style property sheet is displayed, all of the default buttons are created, but the Finish button is hidden and located under the Next button. To display all of the default buttons, you must show the Finish button and move the Next button. Then move the Back button so that its relative position to the Next button is maintained. The following sample code displays the Finish button and moves the Next and Back buttons to the left of the Finish button. CMyWizardSheet is derived from CPropertySheet. Sample Code ----------- /* Compile options needed: Default */ BOOL CMyWizardSheet::OnInitDialog() { BOOL bResult = CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog(); CRect rect, tmp; CSize shift; CWnd* pTemp; CWnd* pNext; // Get The position of the Cancel Button pTemp = GetDlgItem(IDCANCEL); if (pTemp==NULL) return bResult; pTemp->GetWindowRect(tmp); // Get The position of the Next Button pNext = GetDlgItem(ID_WIZNEXT); if (pNext==NULL) return bResult; pNext->GetWindowRect(rect); // Calculate the distance to shift the Next and Back buttons shift.cx = tmp.left-rect.right+rect.Width();; shift.cy = 0; // Get The position of the Back Button pTemp = GetDlgItem(ID_WIZBACK); if (pTemp==NULL) return bResult; pTemp->GetWindowRect(tmp); // move the Back button tmp -= shift; ScreenToClient(tmp); pTemp->MoveWindow(tmp); // move the Next button ScreenToClient(rect); tmp = rect-shift; pNext->MoveWindow(tmp); // Show the Finish Button pTemp = GetDlgItem(ID_WIZFINISH); if (pTemp==NULL) return bResult; pTemp->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW); return bResult; } Additional query words: 4.00 CPropertyPage CPropertySheet ====================================================================== Keywords : kbMFC kbPropSheet KbUIDesign kbVC kbGrpDSMFCATL Technology : kbAudDeveloper kbMFC Version : winnt:4.0 Issue type : kbhowto ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
