Here's the code snippet : To change only the background color

HBRUSH CTestDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
	HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);

	// TODO:  Change any attributes of the DC here
	HBRUSH hBr=CreateSolidBrush (RGB(255,0,0));
       
        if(pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID ()== IDC_EDIT1)
	{
	    pDC->SetBkColor (RGB(255,0,0));
	    hbr=hBr;
	}
	// TODO:  Return a different brush if the default is not desired
	return hbr;
}

Is it OK!

The following code changes the color of the all the EDIT controls of the dialog CtestMFCDlg.

HBRUSH CtestMFCDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)<br />
{<br />
	HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);<br />
        if(nCtlColor== CTLCOLOR_EDIT )<br />
		hbr=CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,100,0));<br />
	return hbr;<br />
}

i want to change color of a particular control

I think following code will solve ur problem

if(pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID()==IDC_EDIT1)<br />
{<br />
    CRect rect;<br />
    pWnd->GetClientRect(&rect);<br />
    pDC->FillSolidRect(&rect,RGB(255,0,0));<br />
    pWnd->ReleaseDC(pDC); <br />
}<br />

put this code in OnCtlColor ().
This wil give you desired output.

Use FindWindow() or
use CWnd* GetDlgItem(int nID)

{<br />
	HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);<br />

        pDC->SetTextColor (RGB(255,0,0));<br />

Thanks to the three people who replied so promptly. Of course SetTextColor and the messages like WM_CTLCOLORDLG are the obvious thing, but somehow I had never had to do it before.

Experts!
I have a device conected to my computer with a USB,
i want to stop this device and then start it again.
i selected disable in the device manager and the device was disable successfully.

But when i tried to do it programmaticatly it failed.
I tried calling "net stop service_name_blabla" from the command line.
and i tried using SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP,in ControlService

but they both failed, reason:
"The requested control is not valid for this service. " error
how can i disable the service with C++ like i'm doing well in the device manager ?

thanks.

Use SetupDiSetClassInstallParams function to do this.

Is it possible to use iTunes SDK without installing itunes? Can I use APIs provided by iTunes SDK just by registering the required DLLs and with required files? Please send me some links where I can find sample applications to update iPod(sync) thru our own application which uses iTunes SDK.

See the Following link where you get example.

If the Dll uses the Libraries then you have to link that library else it throws linker error.
