    Use the WM_CTLCOLOR-message.

    Your dialog can trap the WM_CTLCOLOR message.
    Look up the MFC Help file notes for CWnd::OnCtlColor().
    Before a control is about to paint itself, the parent
    window receives a chance to set its own default text color and background brush.

    Also, check out the Knowledge Base article Q117778,
    "Changing the Background Color of an MFC Edit Control."
