Button in a Property sheet

CPropertySheet provides four default buttons (OK, Cancel, Apply and   
Help).  I want to add an additional button placing on the left of the OK   
button but have hard time finding the correct CRect position.  Does   
anyone know how?
TIA!

didn't work.]

I always use the following code to locate a control with the given ID:

CWnd *CMainFrame::GetRectPosition(CRect *rcRect, int nID, CWnd *pParentWnd)
{
    CRect   rcParent;
    CWnd    *pWnd;
    
    pWnd = pParentWnd->GetDlgItem(nID);
    if(pWnd)
    { 
        pParentWnd->GetClientRect(&rcParent);
        pParentWnd->ClientToScreen(&rcParent);
        CPoint Offset=rcParent.TopLeft();        
               
        pWnd->GetWindowRect(rcRect);
        rcRect->OffsetRect(-Offset);
        
        return pWnd;
    }           
    
    return NULL;                   
    
}   // GetRectPosition()

     Following code I used to move Cancel button on propety sheet at perticular 
     position.

     CButton *pCancelButton = (CButton *)GetDlgItem(IDCANCEL);
     
     CRect rcPropSht, rcBtn, rcBtnPos;
     GetWindowRect(&rcPropSht);
     pCancelButton->GetWindowRect(&rcBtn);
        
     //move cancel button to left
     rcBtnPos.left  = int(rcPropSht.Width()/6) - int(rcBtn.Width()/2);
     rcBtnPos.top   = rcBtn.top - rcPropSht.top -                               
                     GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYCAPTION) -                           
                     GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYDLGFRAME);
     rcBtnPos.right = rcBtnPos.left + 10;
     rcBtnPos.bottom= rcBtnPos.top + 10;
     pCancelButton->MoveWindow(&rcBtnPos, FALSE);

     This sample code might be helpful to move any button on property sheet.
