Hello all,

I simply wish to disable the help button on a property sheet.
I have attempted to used the following in the OnInitDialog() function of
the CPropertySheet:

m_psp.dwFlags ^= PSP_HASHELP;

it worked for elimiating the APPLY button, so i am stumped. Thanks in
advance.

Style bits need to be set for your property sheet *and* your property
pages.  Check the docs on m_psp and m_psh.

Eric,

To remove the Help button, make sure than nothing is handling the =
ID_HELP command. For an AppWizard generated application, comment out the =
line as shown in the code below in your CWinApp's message map:

// CSetupApp

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CSetupApp, CWinApp)
	//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CSetupApp)
		// NOTE - the ClassWizard will add and remove mapping macros here.
		//    DO NOT EDIT what you see in these blocks of generated code!
	//}}AFX_MSG
	// No help file written yet. Uncomment when help file is written.
	// ON_COMMAND(ID_HELP, CWinApp::OnHelp)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

As I remember from grunging around in the MFC property sheet source =
code, MFC sets the PSP_HASHELP flag if there is a message handler and =
ignore your setting.

I disable the help button prior to calling the domodal() function:

	e.g.  propsheet->m_psh.dwFlags &= ~(PSH_HASHELP);

I did this by deriving a class from CPropertyPage, overriding
OnCreate(), as follows:

int CMyPropertySheet::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct) 
{
   if (CPropertySheet::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
      return -1;
   
   // TODO: Add your specialized creation code here
   ((CWnd*)GetDlgItem(ID_APPLY_NOW))->ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
   ((CWnd*)GetDlgItem(ID_HELP))->ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
   
   return 0;
}

I needed to derive my own class from CPropertyPage for other
reasons, so this was a convenient way to do it. I'm sure there
are others...
