OnSysCommand is a little late for removing menu items. This function gets
called after the user selects something from the menu.

I would do it in OnInitDialog

BOOL CBmpBkgdTBarButtonsDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
    CDialog::OnInitDialog();

    CMenu* pSysMenu = GetSystemMenu(FALSE);
    if(pSysMenu != NULL)
     {
        pSysMenu->RemoveMenu(SC_MOVE, MF_BYCOMMAND);
        pSysMenu->RemoveMenu(SC_SIZE, MF_BYCOMMAND);
        pSysMenu->RemoveMenu(SC_MAXIMIZE, MF_BYCOMMAND);
     }

.......
}

  I needed call CWnd::DrawMenuBar in the OnSysCommand message handler to
remove some of the commands in the system menu of the taskbar button.
However, I am not sure how to correctly write the statement for the call.
Could anyone help me with this.

Here is the code so far -

void CBmpBkgdTBarButtonsDlg::OnSysCommand(UINT nID, LPARAM lParam)
{
   // TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call default

   CMenu* pSysMenu = GetSystemMenu(FALSE);
   if(pSysMenu != NULL)
    {
       pSysMenu->RemoveMenu(SC_MOVE, MF_BYCOMMAND);
       pSysMenu->RemoveMenu(SC_SIZE, MF_BYCOMMAND);
       pSysMenu->RemoveMenu(SC_MAXIMIZE, MF_BYCOMMAND);

// CWnd::DrawMenuBar ***This line here***
    }

  CDialog::OnSysCommand(nID, lParam);
}
