Hi, Zafir,
The code below is actually written by you, is it possible for you to post
or mail me the a demo of the property dialog box. I would really appreciate
if you can do that favor for me.
Thanks

MFC provides three property page classes - CFontPropPage, CColorPropPage and CPicturePropPage. Unfortunately, these
can be used with OLE Automation only. There's also been some discussion on the Usenet news groups about using the
'Choose Font' dialog as a property page. This too is a dead end. You can't use the 'Choose Font' dialog within a property
sheet.

The solution is to implement the font property page yourself (or let someone else develop it for you). To allow you to customize
the behaviour of the common dialogs, the SDK provides the dialog resources for these dialogs. The resource for the 'Choose
Font' dialog is in the FONT.DLG file in the Include directory and the associated symbols can be found in the DLGS.H file.
Using these files as a starting point, I created a resource for a Font Property Page and added a CPropertyPage derived class to
use this resource. The implementation given below is somewhat limited but still useful. If you need to enhance this, you can look
at the source file for CFontPropPage in the MFC source directory.



Step 1: Add the dialog resource

You can either open the rc file listed below in DevStudio and copy the dialog resource to you main resource file or you can
include the rc file itself.

To copy the resource, open the 'fontpage.rc' file in DevStudio and expand the resource outline. Then open up the
ResourceView for your application so that the dialog resources are visible. Finally drag the IDD_FONTPAGE resource from
the 'fontpage.rc' over to your application resources in the ResourceView.

To include the fontpage resource file, copy the files 'fontpage.rc' and 'fontpagerc.h' (listed below) to the 'res' directory under the
project directory. Then add the following line to the 'rc2' file already in this directory. The resource image is also shown below.

Step 2: Include the source files into your project The listing of the header and implementation files are listed below. Simply,
include them into your project and you are all set to use the CFontPage class. The implementation of this class is fairly simple.
The CFontPage constructor takes a pointer to a LOGFONT structure. It uses the information in this structure to initialize itself.
If a LOGFONT structure is not supplied then the desktop window's font is used. In the OnInitDialog() function, we enumerate
through the fonts and populate the 'Font' combobox. Whenever, any of the font characteristic changes, the OnSelChange()
function gets called. All the entries in the message map point to this function. The OnSelChange() function updates the internal
information and displays a sample text. Listing of FontPage.h
