Re: How to stop highlighting items in Cedit control

I have tried this, but since the control is in a CPropertyPage, VS tells me:
 // TODO: If this is a RICHEDIT control, the control will not
 // send this notification unless you override the
CPropertyPage::OnInitDialog()
 // function to send the EM_SETEVENTMASK message to the control
 // with the ENM_UPDATE flag ORed into the lParam mask.
My next step was to insert the following code in the class dervived from
CPropertyPage:
BOOL CDeployFinish::OnInitDialog()
{
 CPropertyPage::OnInitDialog();
 CEdit *pEdit = (CEdit *)GetDlgItem(IDC_DEPLOYSTATUS);

 HWND handle = pEdit->m_hWnd;
 int eventMask = ::SendMessage(handle, EM_SETEVENTMASK, 0, ENM_UPDATE);
 // TODO: Add extra initialization here

 return TRUE; // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control
               // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE
}

This method was entered and seemed to work. However the OnUpdate for the
Cedit control was not called so I could not call SetSel(-1,0);

I haven't been able to find any code that shows how it should be done so I
am at a loss as to what my problem is. Any suggestions??
