How do you disable the Maximize button in MFC?

Question

How do you disable the Maximize button/capability in an SDI application?

are you talking about a dialog or a SDI application ? you should edit the title. — Max, May 25 '09 at 10:38
I edited the title. Next time, pam, please use a descriptive short version of the question as a title instead of "MFC dialog question" :) — OregonGhost, May 25 '09 at 11:06

For completeness:

int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
    ModifyStyle(WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, 0);

    <etc...>
}

I prefer this to an external link that could be broken in the future. – Aidan Ryan May 25 '09 at 17:00

ModifyStyle(WS_MAXIMIZEBOX,0,SWP_FRAMECHANGED);  // disable maximize
ModifyStyle(WS_MINIMIZEBOX,0,SWP_FRAMECHANGED);  // disable minimize
ModifyStyle(0,WS_MAXIMIZEBOX,SWP_FRAMECHANGED);  // enable maximize
ModifyStyle(0,WS_MINIMIZEBOX,SWP_FRAMECHANGED);  // enable minimize

try this, should be working
