Without resorting to a user drawn button, is there a way to change
the appearance of button controls that are displayed on either 
dialog or regular windows?  For example, can you change the foreground,
background colors, font used for the text, etc.?  I want to be able
to do this on an individual button basis, i.e. in one window I might
want to have a red button, a blue button and a green button.  Any
help would be appreciated.

I never actually did this, but I'm 99% sure you can use WinSetPresParam
to change all kinds of things if you know what to pass as arguments (I don't).
