Hi,

is it possible to add an icon, toggle btn, or even a checkbox to the
control box caption area of a form (this is there the minimize,
maximize and close icons are located in the upper right of a form) and
also trap for user clicks on those controls?

thanks much

Click to expand...

Basically it is possible using Win32 interop calls, but I would not
recommend it because it violates Windows design guidelines.
