You must be using XP themes. You can't use PBM_SETBARCOLOR (which is was

I cretaed dialog bar with the commands:

CProgressCtrl myCtrl;

myCtrl.Create(WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE, CRect(160,275,280,300), this,1);
// Set the range to be 0 to 100.
myCtrl.SetRange(0, 100);
// and then starting to change the position in dialog progress bar
myCtrl.SetPos(0);
myCtrl.SetPos(10);
// and it is working fine

//but when it come close to 90 position , i want to change the color, so i
added this code:

myCtrl.SetBarColor(RGB(255,255,0));

and it doesn't work, any idea why ?
