I want to set font size and font color for button in MFC. But MFC differrent from win32. It have no font style in property.

From this anybody could conclude that win32 does have ones, right? This is new to me, as VS uses the same resource editor for C++ projects, including MFC and Win32. You might be talking about WinForms, but this is absolutely different story.

please help me , How set font color and font size for button in MFC ?

You can change font family, size and weight quite easily by creating new font and setting it explicitly to the button. However, text color is changeable for owner-draw buttons only, but this button style makes you be responsible for drawing entire button face, borders, etc.

Explicitly define the Font style :

CFont SFont;

SFont.CreateFont(15,7,0,0,FW_BOLD,0,0,0,DEFAULT_CHARSET,0,0,0,0,"Times New Roman");

ButtonContolName.SetFont(&SFont);

Finally delete the CFont.

Explicitly define the Font style :

CFont SFont;
SFont.CreateFont(15,7,0,0,FW_BOLD,0,0,0,DEFAULT_CHARSET,0,0,0,0,"Times New Roman");
ButtonContolName.SetFont(&SFont);

Finally delete the CFont.

You do NOT need to explicitely delete a CFont object (more correct - underlying font handle). It will be deleted in CFont destructor

Thank you Mr. Victor, Still now I used the below code in the next line SetFont() method.
SFont.DeleteObject();
