Hello

I have intercepted the WM_NCPAINT message to customise the Caption Bar and
window border for my application window. The problem is I cannot find a way
to stop Windoze drawing the default Caption Bar buttons (Minimise, Maximise
& Close).

I need to know two things (I think)....
    How to stop Windoze drawing the default Caption Bar buttons.
    How to draw my own custom buttons in the Caption Bar.

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Michael
