Checkbox problem (VC++ dialog under WinXP)

Hello,

I have a VC++ dialog that contains other child dialogs, and one of these
child dialogs have checkboxes inside.
When I'm using windows xp with some theme, the checkbox display only the
box, the region of the text is filled by a black rectangle.
The same thing happens with radio buttons if I set Transparent = True,
otherwise it displays the text with an opaque background.

Does anybody knows how to solve this?

Thanks for any help!

How do I force a browser to download a file instead of displaying it? In other words I have a page with MP3 and WMA files on it and I would like for the visitor to download the file instead of play it without having to right-click and save. How can I force the browser to pop up the "save file as" dialog box instead of playing it? I know that I can encapsulate it in a zip file which will download and open WinZip. Thanks

I need to add a checkbox to the common dialog control for opening files. I know it is possible to customize the common dialog thru API. But the sample codes I have seen were too long and elaborate. One was for adding a preview pane for images to show thumbnails. All I want is a simple checkbox. Heck, I will settle for the built-in "open as read only" checkbox if I could just change its caption.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
