I have some problems when working with Win32 api.
Changing the text and background color of a button doesn't take effect. My code:
case WM_CTLCOLORBTN:
COLORREF colorref;
colorref = RGB(0,0,255);
HBRUSH hBrushBtn;
hBrushBtn = CreateSolidBrush(colorref);
return ((LRESULT)hBrushBtn);
break;How do I create selectable text. My code:
text = CreateWindow("STATIC","text",WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD , 0,0,100,60, hwnd , NULL, NULL, NULL);

This looks correct on the surface but from what I read is not reliable. That is, may not have the desired effect in all situations. I'd leave it alone and complete your app. The background color of a button doesn't add much value IMO. Also if you want, just make the button a graphic and take full control.
Sets the colors for the specified display elements. Display elements are the various parts of a window and the display that appear on the system display screen.
My suggestion, if you're going to use c++ to program a Windows GUI, use Visual Studio. It will interface c++ with the .net library and make your programming much easier.
