Thanks, Bharathi

Hi,

Base on my understanding, I think you’d better use a custom form control. Then draw the CaptionButton. You can catch WM_NCPAINT message to draw the button.

The following articles tells about this:

And the docked container

There is a open source control in source forge

Else, You will use user32.dll to make it.
