Don't do it in WM_CTLCOLORBTN; in WM_INITDIALOG or WM_CREATE, create the font object, saving the returned HFONT. Then send a WM_SETFONT message to the button, passing the font you created. Then in your WM_CLOSE or WM_DESTROY handler, destroy the saved font handle.

I would like to set the font style of a button so that the text is bold. Is it right I need to handle WM_CTLCOLORBTN? What exactly do I need to do? The following fails:
...
case WM_CTLCOLORBTN:
return CreateFont(...);
...
Bye, Phillip
