MDI caret keyboard and mouse
-
How do I get mouse keyboard and the blinking caret ready for user input, just like when you open up Microsoft Word? Trying to build a customized word processor and I am having trouble finding the basics. I already have an MDI built using the MFC Application Wizard. When I compile the program, the child window has no way to accept any input from the user in the document area. Do I need to add a richTextBox to the child window or what? Sorry for the dumb question but need some basic:confused: direction on how to do this in Visual C++.net Thanks so much... RRL

No! Unless you are writing a wrapper around somebody elses code. Like every body else does, and I don't blame them as they have to make a livening (like us). NOTE: If it is handed to you, then work with it. I am ass-u-me(ing) that you (like me) wants to know how to do it. Pop me an e-mail, and we'll discuse it. INTP Every thing is relative...
