I want to use SetLook() method in my application

header file is

C++

#pragma once
#include "ComputerScience.h"
#include "InformationTechnology.h"
class CLifePlanningSheet : public CPropertySheet
{
	DECLARE_DYNAMIC(CLifePlanningSheet)
public:
	CLifePlanningSheet(UINT nIDCaption, CWnd* pParentWnd = NULL, UINT iSelectPage = 0);
	CLifePlanningSheet(LPCTSTR pszCaption, CWnd* pParentWnd = NULL, UINT iSelectPage = 0);
	CLifePlanningSheet();
	//virtual ~CLifePlanningSheet();
private:
	  CComputerScience		pgeComputerScience;
    CInformationTechnology	pgeInformationTechnology;

protected:
	DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};

and vc++ file is

C++

// LifePlanningSheet.cpp : implementation file
//

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "LifePlanning.h"
#include "LifePlanningSheet.h"
#include <cstdlib>
IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC(CLifePlanningSheet, CPropertySheet)
CLifePlanningSheet::CLifePlanningSheet()
{
	AddPage(&pgeComputerScience);
	AddPage(&pgeInformationTechnology);
	SetLook(CPropertySheet::PropSheetLook_Tabs);
}
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CLifePlanningSheet, CPropertySheet)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

When run the program it gives following errors
error C3861: 'SetLook': identifier not found
error C2065: 'PropSheetLook_Tabs' : undeclared identifier
error C2039: 'PropSheetLook_Tabs' : is not a member of 'CPropertySheet'

how to remove that?

Solution 1

You class is derived from CPropertySheet, not from CMFCPropertySheet.

You must replace all occurences of CPropertySheeet by CMFCPropertySheet in your header and source files.

As you suggest, I did but it gives error
error C2504: 'CMFCPropertySheet' : base class undefined

You probably forgot to include the header file afxpropertysheet.h.

Solution 2

You are referring to a member function which you have not declared, and a data member which is not a member of CPropertySheet. By the way you are not running the program, you are merely trying to compile it, these messages are from the compiler telling you that you have things missing from your source code.
