EN_UPDATEnotification in the edit control's parent.Steve

Adding to the answer already given... You can change the size with
SetWindowPos(...)Greetings. -------- M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

One way to do this is to change the size of the editbox dynamically using
SetWindowPos()API. Use this API inWM_CHARorEN_CHANGEnotification. like below.INT Widht =0; //width of the charcter
INT Height = 10 //height of the charcter
case WM_CHAR: ( or EN_CHAGE)
//X,Y is the position of the edit box.
SetWindowPos(hWndEdit,0,X,Y,Height,Width++);
break;above code will work. But you need to take care when to grow the editbox and when to shrink it. ( i.e if someone press backspace or delete the editbox should shrink. )
