Creating a Property Sheet

The example in this section creates a property sheet that contains two pages pics/WIN3200090001.gif one for setting the font properties of a cell in a spreadsheet and another for setting the border properties of the cell. The example defines the pages by filling a pair of PROPSHEETPAGE structures and specifying the address in the PROPSHEETHEADER structure that is passed to the PropertySheet function. The dialog box templates, icons, and labels for the pages are loaded from the resources contained in the application's executable file. The icon for the property sheet is also loaded from the application's resources.

// DoPropertySheet - creates a property sheet that contains two pages.
// hwndOwner - handle of the owner window of the property sheet
//
// Global variables
// g_hinst - instance handle
extern HINSTANCE g_hinst;

VOID DoPropertySheet(HWND hwndOwner)
{
PROPSHEETPAGE psp[2];
PROPSHEETHEADER psh;

psp[0].dwSize = sizeof(PROPSHEETPAGE);
psp[0].dwFlags = PSP_USEICONID | PSP_USETITLE;
psp[0].hInstance = g_hinst;
psp[0].pszTemplate = MAKEINTRESOURCE(DLG_FONT);
psp[0].pszIcon = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_FONT);
psp[0].pfnDlgProc = FontDialogProc;
psp[0].pszTitle = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDS_FONT)
psp[0].lParam = 0;
psp[0].pfnCallback = NULL;
