I've noticed this in .NET apps (and MS Office apps running on WinXP and above). My MFC 4.2 (VC6) apps (running on all OSs) work as you would expect - clicking a toolbar button activates the window and causes the button's handler code to execute. You might want to try handling the WM_MOUSEACTIVATE event in your application's top level Form and posting a WM_LBUTTONDOWN to the Control under the mouse (if any).

No major reason - I just think of treeview data situations a 2-paned affairs is all. Possibly that's an out-moded frame of mind. I was more interested in alternative methods of getting the data to the app in the first place though, I can fiddle with it once it's there in a variety of ways. :)

Yep - as I was typing the question, I realized that the answer was to simply not create the pk client side. :) Thanks! cdj

hahaha - yeah, gamer-speak is definitely typical. Lots of exclamation marks too!!!elevens!!! ;)

Since cos(ax) sin(bx) = 1/2 sin((a+b)x) + 1/2 cos((a-b)x) should be (a+b)/(a-b) rationale. :) 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.

Yeah, they'd probably be looking around and through the legs of a capital "A" just to see what little of the CP page they can actually see, wondering "why did they put this crap all over the screen?", still never reading it, and STILL posting programming questions in the Lounge. :sigh: A guide to posting questions on CodeProject[^] Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP Visual Developer - Visual Basic      2006, 2007

Well the person I know would have an answer replied here so...cool! Good luck! Mark Mark Salsbery Microsoft MVP - Visual C++

If I can print out the listing, that'll work fine - thanks!

For 3), I do know the name of it - there's no problem there. I included the whole sequence just to give the reader the problem-context. I'd thought of polling every object with a focus property - if I can't come up with anything else, I'll do it. Obviously it's hugely inefficient. Thanks for your thoughts! cdj

Oh. Boy is the name "autoscroll" misleading for a property then. Thanks!

Thanks! Why is it *always* the case that you can look for something for an arbitrarily length of time and not find it, but then you find it the second *after* you ask? I guess it's related to the proverb: the quickest way to get the bus to show up is to light a cigarette. lol! thanks again, cdj
