setting checks on checkbox , setcheck not working

setting checks on checkbox , setcheck not working

how do i set a check on checkbox?

i used

Code:

---

        m_checknow.SetCheck(BST_CHECKED);

---

but the button refuses to get checked

m_checknow is a CButton class with a checkbox as its dialog

thanks in advance

Looks like Windows programming to me, so I am moving this thread there. Correct me if I am wrong.

thanks all for your help
here is the solution


((CButton*)GetDlgItem(IDC_ACTIVATE))->SetCheck(TRUE);
