I used this code on VS2010 but id did not seem to w ork.
I added an MFC button from the resource editor and w rote.
CMFCButton *pButton = (CMFCButton *)GetDlgItem(IDC_MFCBUTTON1);
pButton->StFaceColor(RGB(255,0,0),true);
pButton->SetTextColor(RGB(0,0,255));
I w onder w hy the code doesn't seem to w ork.

(1)Note that the background is not filled w hen the CMFCButton::m_bTransparent
member variable is TRUE.

(2)SetFaceColor() is ignored by modern theme engines. The w izard greates

something like:
CMFCVisualManager::SetDefaultManager(RUNTIME_CLASS(CMFCVisualManagerWindow s));
You can comment this line out to disable custom MFC themes. This w orks, but the
button
w ill not look good because of classic theme.
Possibly you can Load a Color-Bitmap to get the color you w ant.
Another solution w ould be to do an ow nerdraw button - handling the OnDraw Item()
or WM_DRAWITEM
message and do the painting yourself.

It is also needed to include the header afxbutton.h, i.e. #include

"afxbutton.h"
