WS_CAPTION
0x00C00000L
The window has a title bar (includes the WS_BORDER style).
WS_CHILD
0x40000000L

Excludes the area occupied by child windows when drawing occurs within the parent window. This style is used when creating the parent window.
WS_CLIPSIBLINGS
0x04000000L
Clips child windows relative to each other; that is, when a particular child window receives a WM_PAINT message, the WS_CLIPSIBLINGS style clips all other overlapping child windows out of the region of the child window to be updated. If WS_CLIPSIBLINGS is not specified and child windows overlap, it is possible, when drawing within the client area of a child window, to draw within the client area of a neighboring child window.
WS_DISABLED
0x08000000L
The window is initially disabled. A disabled window cannot receive input from the user. To change this after a window has been created, use the EnableWindow function.

The window has a border of a style typically used with dialog boxes. A window with this style cannot have a title bar.
WS_GROUP

The window is the first control of a group of controls. The group consists of this first control and all controls defined after it, up to the next control with the WS_GROUP style. The first control in each group usually has the WS_TABSTOP style so that the user can move from group to group. The user can subsequently change the keyboard focus from one control in the group to the next control in the group by using the direction keys.
You can turn this style on and off to change dialog box navigation. To change this style after a window has been created, use the SetWindowLong function.
