How to Enable a Button's Property Pages in Visual Studio 2013 with CDialog Class

In Visual Studio 2008, it is possible to double click on a button from the resource view of a CDialog box and be directed right to the code that will help me edit its actions. However, in 2013, when I double click on a button, an "Add Class Wizard" window pops up. I just want to edit what my button does. How can I do this? In the button's properties window, the "property pages" button (the wrench) is disabled, and when I click on the "control events" button (the lightning bolt), there is nothing to select. Thanks in advance!

If you're looking strictly for properties, right click the mouse and select "Properties". Additionally, you can right click the mouse on the button and select "Add Event Handler..." from the popup menu. That should display an Event Handler Wizard dialog that will allow you pick any number of events that the control supports. Note, however, if your resources are stored in a resource only dll, this approach can be problematic.
