Keyboard input in a Dialog

ksarkar · 05-20-2005, 03:33 AM

I am making a fully dialog based application wherein my application has a dialog with a few buttons. I want to move one of the buttons at runtime through keyboard left and right keys. I have added the control WM_KEYDOWN and written the code there. But my problem is that whenever I click on the left or right keys the focus keeps shifting between the buttons on the dialog but the button doesn't move. I am at my wits end as to why keyboard input is not going to the dialog. Please help

regards,
KSarkar
