Responding to TAB in CEdit
-
Hi, I have sub classed CEdit and I can get notifications for example in the OnKeyDown function for any VK_XXXXX keys. From some odd reason, the VK_TAB is not responding, any reason why ? Basically, what I am looking for is to do auto complete Linux type. I already have the data to auto complete and I just want to do it with the TAB key. The problem is that no matter what I tried, the TAB always does what it's "programmed" to do in windows, it jumps to the next field. Any help is appreciated. shay

I think you have to override the
PreTranslateMessage()method. :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.
that did the trick
