Syntax
int PropertySheet(LPCPROPSHEETHEADER lppsph);
Parameters
lppsph
[in] Long pointer to a PROPSHEETHEADER structure that defines the frame and pages of a property sheet.
Return Values
A positive value indicates success. –1 indicates failure.
If the dwFlags member of the PROPSHEETHEADER structure specifies the PSH_MODELESS flag, the successful return value is the window handle to the property sheet dialog.
The return values described in the following table have a special meaning.
| Value | Description |
| ID_PSREBOOTSYSTEM | A page sent the PSM_REBOOTSYSTEM message to the property sheet. The computer must be restarted for the user's changes to take effect. |
| ID_PSRESTARTWINDOWS | A page sent the PSM_RESTARTWINDOWS message to the property sheet. Windows must be restarted for the user's changes to take effect. |
To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
By default, PropertySheet creates a modal dialog. If the dwFlags member of the PROPSHEETHEADER structure specifies the PSH_MODELESS flag, PropertySheet creates a modeless dialog and returns immediately after the dialog is created. In this case, the PropertySheet return value is the window handle to the modeless dialog.
For a modeless property sheet, your message loop should use PSM_ISDIALOGMESSAGE to pass messages to the property sheet dialog. Your message loop should use PSM_GETCURRENTPAGEHWND to determine when to destroy the dialog. When the user chooses the OK or Cancel button, PSM_GETCURRENTPAGEHWND returns NULL, and you can then use the DestroyWindow function to destroy the dialog box.
