Changing the border style of property sheet

Hi friends,

In my application, i have one property sheet which i need to use in two different ways.
1. I need to embed that property sheet within the tab control present in another dialog.
2. The other one is to act as separate dialog box(modal).

For the first one, i need to change the Style property to child and Border property to none.

For the second one, i need to change the Style property to pop up and Border property to dialog frame.

how can i change the properties of the property sheet dynamically?
please give some suggestions.

# 1 Re: Changing the border style of property sheet
In OnInitDialog modify propert sheet style by adding/removing border style (WS_DLGFRAME or WS_THICKFRAME) .

Thank you for your reply Mr.JohnCz.

I'm new to VC++. I need to know the function used to set the border style.

I assumed from the beginning that you are using MFC.
If not, changes to a property sheet style would have to be made in WM_INITDIALOG handler.
If MFC, use ModifyStyle. There are two versions: static and non-static members of the CWnd class.
If API, use GetWindowLong and SetWindowLong passing GWL_STYLE offset.
