Getting rid of the focus rectangle in a CButton

I have a button in which I use a SetBitmap call to put a bitmap on the button.  Everything works ok, but when the button has the focus there is a "focus" rectangle drawn on top of the Bitmap.  Normally, I wouldn't care, but this button is small and the "focus" rectangle hides most of the bitmap.  How do I get rid of this "focus" rectangle?  I could probably use a CBitmapButton but is there a way to do it using CButton?????

thanks,

Jon

I've looked as some code I've written which uses a CButton which is set to be owner-drawn and it doesn't have the problem about focus rectangles. Is your button owner-drawn? Also, how about disabling it as a tab-stop?

Disabling the tab-stop will only change the focus if tabbed to it.  Won't the rectangle still show up once it has been clicked?
