    If you have more than one program you want to start, you need a button per program you want to start.

    To start you external progrma, in the button parent window, you need to process the WM_COMMAND message with the BN_CLICKED notification.

    To set the text of the button, you need to send WM_SETTEXT message to the button with the text you want shown.

    Btw, BS_GROUPBOX is used for creating the rectangle around radio buttons. This style is not going to work for your scenario.

    If you want an alternative to using multiple Button controls, you can use a Toolbar. In fact, it seems to me that a toolbar would be a better control for you. You can read more about creating a toolbar.
