set radio button color with visual C++

[Laurent Marty]

Hello,

On a little socket server program , I want to display on a dialog the
presence or not of a client connected throw a led changing from green to
red when a connection is present.
I thought tu use a disabled radiobutton and change its bkgrd color.
but i don' t know how it' s possible to perform this action.

Any hints and/or other solution more "elegants" ?

Thanks

PS:my program doesn't use MFC.

You're in a wrong newsgroup. Try comp.os.ms-windows.programmer
(and its sub-groups).

If you go the radiobutton route, check out the WM_CTLCOLORBTN notification:
