I need to color a button using ATL, WTL or WIN 32 API..I can easily do it using MFC but because of the Application requirementI have to do it by using the above mentioned technologies only.

class CColorButton : public CWindowImpl<CColorButton, CButton> {
public:
   DECLARE_WND_SUPERCLASS(_T("CColorButton"), _T("BUTTON"))
   
   // Don't forget REFLECT_NOTIFICATIONS() in the parent window message map!
   BEGIN_MSG_MAP(CColorButton)
      MSG_OCM_DRAWITEM(OnDrawItem)
   END_MSG_MAP()
   
public:
   void OnDrawItem(UINT uCode, LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT pdis) {
      // Do your owner draw painting here, as prescribed by the MSDN docs
   }
};

If you rebuild the crt dll, and install it in say Windows\System32,
