Win32: setting focus impossible!?

Hey guys!
Ich getting crazy trying to set the focus to a button in a dialog.
In the WindowProc of the dialog I have the following:
But neither sending the WM_SETFOCUS message nor using SetFocus() changes a thing. The focus is always on another button, no matter what I do...
Any help is apreciated! Thaaaaanks :-D
Did you read the MSDN for WM_INITDIALOG?
Quote:Return Value
The dialog box procedure should return TRUE to direct the system to set the keyboard focus to the control given by hwndFocus. Otherwise, it should return FALSE to prevent the system from setting the default keyboard focus.

Sorry, I left that out in the code I posted. But now I found a way: in the settings of the button there is a flag called "default button". If that is set to true, the button is initially focused.
Thank's for your reply!
