by the way I assume you pages are CPropertyPage derived not CPropertySheet
Hi ShaunWilde,
Please don't lock questions. Just post comments like everybody else. Thanks!
Hi gymsam,
If you Create a modeless CPropertySheet, none of the buttons appear at the bottom. Then in the propety pages, you can call the CPropertySheet::PressButto
But what you propose is non-standard UI. People expect to see [Close] and [OK] at the bottom of a property sheet. Why do you want to confuse them?
Anyway, you will need to put OK and Cancel buttons on each property page or else people will get *really* confused.

What you say is right,but in my case i just display text in listbox of the page,the user can use x button on the top right conner of the window.
Mr.ShaunWilde comment is also right.So both of you are right.
