Is there a way to change the default button captions of a TSaveDialog dialog
(i.e., instead of Save/Cancel say Ok/Cancel)?
Tx,

CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT message. For example:
void __fastcall TForm1::SaveDialog1Show(TObject *Sender)
{
CommDlg_OpenSave_SetControlText(::GetParent(SaveDialog1->Handle),
IDOK, "OK");
}

Thanks. Your suggestion works.
To get a better understanding:
1) How do I figure out the identifier of control in a dialog box?
2) CommDlg_OpenSave_SetControlText function cannot be found in the help
unlike the SetDlgItemText function, which is described in the help.
What is the difference between these two functions? The former works
with the "Save" button while the latter works only with the "cancel"
button?!?
TIA,
S.

at the attributes of individual windows and controls.
// lParam = pointer to a string
// wParam = ID of control to change
// return = not used
#define CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT (CDM_FIRST + 0x0004)
#define CommDlg_OpenSave_SetControlText(_hdlg, _id, _text) \
(void)SNDMSG(_hdlg, CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT, (WPARAM)_id,
(LPARAM)(LPSTR)_text)
Most macros are not documented by themselves. You have to look at the
documentation for the associated message instead, ie:
CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT Message
msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/winui/winui/windowsuserinterface/userinput/commondialogboxlibrary/commondialogboxreference/commondialogboxmessages/cdm_setcontroltext.asp
child controls. The dialogs themselves change from one OS version to
another. The messages help maintain consistency across versions without
applications having to care what the changes are.

Note that there's an available header, dlgs.h, used in the latter
page, which is helpful. But you also need the frequently-moved MSDN
document called "Explorer-Style Control Identifiers"
