DOC: BN_DISABLE and BN_DOUBLECLICKED Documented Incorrectly

Last reviewed: October 8, 1997
Article ID: Q102155

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.5
Microsoft Visual C++ 32-bit Edition, versions 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 4.1

SUMMARY

According to the online help, an application should not process either the BN_DISABLE or BN_DOUBLECLICKED notification. The documentation recommends that new applications should use the BS_OWNERDRAW button style and information in the DRAWITEMSTRUCT structure.

These statements are incorrect and should be ignored. Even though an application can create the same behavior using an owner-draw button, it is not necessary to do so.
