so far ive understood the function part of the text

// This OnCtlColor handler will change the color of a static control
// with the ID of IDC_MYSTATIC. The code assumes that the CMyDialog
// class has an initialized and created CBrush member named m_brush.
// The control will be painted with red text and a background
// color of m_brush.

HBRUSH CZilchDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
// Call the base class implementation first! Otherwise, it may
// undo what we are trying to accomplish here.
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);

// Are we painting the IDC_MYSTATIC control? We can use
// CWnd::GetDlgCtrlID() to perform the most efficient test.
if (pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_MYSTATIC)
{
// Set the text color to red.
pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(255, 0, 0));

// Set the background mode for text to transparent
// so background will show thru.
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);

// Return handle to our CBrush object.
hbr = m_brush;
}

return hbr;
}




in the h file ive declared

HBRUSH OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)


but now i dont get how to define and where to define m_brush
