Hello everyone

I`m testing tab control for a new application i will be soon building.
However I have a small problem.

I have created a tab control with 4 tabs. I also created 4 dialog resources with no border, caption etc which will appear on the tab control, one for each tab. All of them are children of the tab control.

So when the user clicks the tab, it displays the right dialog. However on Windows XP, when the dialog appears on the tab control, there is that COLOR_3DFACE color surrounding it, as it should be normally.
So I set a NULL brush to the window class that creates those dialogs and now its OK.

However the problem is, some controls like radio buttons and combo boxes still have that COLOR_3DFACE (or is it COLOR_BTNFACE) color surrounding them which makes them look ugly. Is there any way to remove it?
Check the attached pic to see what I mean.

Does anyone know any solution for this??

Thanks
