Thread: WM_GETDLGCODE and DLGC_WANTMESSAGE

Salute,

I have a little problem with tabbing through my own created controls.

All works fine, except the tabbing.
If I tab to the first control the VK_ENTER and VK_RETURN were correct handled, but I can't tab forward, means it stays on the first control and waits for handling the message.

So, how could I tell the GETDLGCODE to tab forward if VK_TAB is pressed ?

Here's an extract of my controls MessageProc ...

Code:

		case WM_KEYDOWN:
			if (wParam == VK_RETURN) {
				IsHover = false;
				hbmp    = bmpHover;
				::InvalidateRect (hWndCtrl, NULL, TRUE);
				::UpdateWindow (hWndCtrl);
				::PostMessage (hWndParent, WM_COMMAND, MAKEWPARAM(ctrlID, 0), reinterpret_cast<long> (hWndCtrl));
			}
			break;

		case WM_KEYUP:
			if (wParam == VK_SPACE) {
				IsHover = false;
				hbmp    = bmpHover;
				::InvalidateRect (hWndCtrl, NULL, TRUE);
				::UpdateWindow (hWndCtrl);
				::PostMessage (hWndParent, WM_COMMAND, MAKEWPARAM(ctrlID, 0), reinterpret_cast<long> (hWndCtrl));
			}
			break;

		case WM_GETDLGCODE:
			return DLGC_WANTMESSAGE;

If I remove case WM_GETDLGCODE: from the code only the WM_KEYUP (VK_SPACE) is working and the WM_KEYDOWN is ignored ...

Thanx for attention ...

EDIT:
WM_KEYDOWN and WM_KEYUP isn't necessary.
[SOLVED]

Code:

		case WM_GETDLGCODE:
			if (lParam) {
				pmsg = reinterpret_cast<LPMSG> (lParam);
				if (pmsg->wParam == VK_RETURN || pmsg->wParam == VK_SPACE) {
					IsHover = false;
					hbmp    = bmpHover;
					::InvalidateRect (hWndCtrl, NULL, TRUE);
					::UpdateWindow (hWndCtrl);
					::PostMessage (hWndParent, WM_COMMAND, MAKEWPARAM(ctrlID, 0), reinterpret_cast<long> (hWndCtrl));
					return DLGC_WANTMESSAGE;
				}
			}
			break;
