When skinning is applied, if I open a dialog and disable the close button in the OnInitDialog() handler, the close button in the title bar remains active! 
The 'Close' option in the system menu is greyed out, and the 'Close' button does nothing when clicked, but the button itself remains active. If skinning is removed the button greys out as expected.
I use the following command to disable the close button:
::EnableMenuItem(GetSystemMenu(hwnd, FALSE), SC_CLOSE, MF_GRAYED);
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

Hi,
Just set MF_DISABLED instead of MF_GRAYED. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Thanks Oleg, that fixed the problem, although I had to OR MF_DISABLED with MF_GRAYED in order to gray out the menu item too.
For the record, the documentation for EnableMenuItem states that MF_GRAYED means "disabled and grayed", and in fact this is what happens when skinning is not being used, so I think you still have a minor issue to fix.
