You may want to check the return from GetCurrentView() before doing this
call just as a sane practice sort of thing. You could also call SendMessage
in the CWnd * object:

CMyView* pView = GetCurrentView();
if(pView != NULL) {
pView->SendMessage(WM_MYMESSAGE,0,0);
}

Or, if you don't want to wait for a return, you could use PostMessage()
instead.

As Ajay said, you can send or post messages to any window. Of course, only
the windows with handlers for those messages will do anything with them.

Hi Ajay,

this is how I am sending it from Document.

SendMessage(GetCurrntView()->m_myListctrl,
  WM_MY_MESSAGE,
   0,
   0);

And in the MyListCTRL.PP
I have to implement hander for WM_MY_MESSAGE()
Let me know is this correct

thanks
Tom

Yes. You can use SendMessage from anywhere as long as you are sending it
to
a window.
