You can derive a class from CEdit and use an object of that class instead of
a CEdit object.
In the derived class, you can catch the enter key press something like this:
BOOL CMyEdit::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if (pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN && VK_RETURN == pMsg->wParam)
{
return TRUE;
}
else if (pMsg->message == WM_KEYUP && VK_RETURN == pMsg->wParam)
{
// do something!
return TRUE;
}
return CEdit::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}

Hey guys,
I am using an EditControl box. It is only a single line text box and
I was wondering how I could go about performing some action when the
user hits the Enter key?
I tried playing around with the various possible events, but it seems
that none of the events actually do what I would like them to do :(
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks
Thanks Mark. That is exactly what I needed :)
