Remove Buttons entirely from a window

[Mike Trader]

How do you Remove Buttons entirely from a window.

Lets say I create a window with a button on it
and I only need that button while some process is going.
After that I need it to dissapear, perhaps even add something
in its place (not another button)

I guess I could do it with a child window but then I got all that
code and a callback function etc etc. If I could ERASE the CONTROL
alltogether that would be much easier for me.

CONTROL ERASE hDlg, 101

I Think I have some code at home that does that, but I am just taking a swag here, may want to try it though...

SendMessage hWnd,%WM_DELETEITEM, GetDlgItem(hWnd,101) (Or just use %myitem), 0

Either hide the button with: ShowWindow GetDlgItem(hDlg, 101), %SW_HIDE
or destroy the button with: DestroyWindow GetDlgItem(hDlg, 101)

How about the DDT statement CONTROL KILL?

Along the same lines as this thread, is there a way to ADD a
control to a DDT dialog WHILE it's being displayed? Common
sense suggests to me that there isn't, but, I've got VERY little
experience in that sort of programming, so, if somebody could
let me know, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

CONTROL ADD can be used to add controls to a dialog at any time. Just
remember to prepare ID's in advance and whatever code needed for the
new control under for example the dialog's WM_COMMAND.
