WM_LBUTTONDOWN for edit controls?

[sweetjones]

Hi, I have 4 edit control boxes that I need to except the WM_LBUTTONDOWN message to set focus to them when clicked with the mouse. I have the setfocus events working perfectly. I even manipulated the OnOK override event with the "Enter" key to go to the next edit control box when pressed and send the SetFocus() to them. I just need to know how to set the focus to the edit control when the edit control is clicked with the mouse? If you need a scenario of the problem I would be more than happy to give one. I am using VS2005 C++ and MFC. Thanx In Advance!

I am not an expert in programming or computer science. However, based on my understanding, it seems like you are trying to set the focus to an edit control when it is clicked with the mouse. In this case, you can use the WM_LBUTTONDOWN message to handle the mouse click event and then use the SetFocus() function to set the focus to the desired edit control.

It is also worth mentioning that the OnOK override event and the "Enter" key may not be the best approach to handle mouse clicks. It would be more efficient to use the WM_LBUTTONDOWN message directly.

I hope this helps and if you need a specific scenario for further assistance, please feel free to provide one.
