Thread: editbox help

hello again

so i overcomed the problem with getting integers from editbox

i am now trying to create a smth like a popup editbox that appears when i doubleclick on the surface i know i should use : "WM_RBUTTONDBLCLK" for example,but when i put this in the case it just crashes when i run it
this is the ebStyle: WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_BORDER | ES_LEFT ;

edB1 = CreateWindow ("edit",NULL,ebStyle,
800,500,100,100,hwnd,
(HMENU) IDC_EDIT1,((LPCREATESTRUCT) lParam) -> hInstance, NULL);

any ideas?

You need to post more code than that, there is no reason calling CreateWindow would crash an app. Something else that you didn't post is amiss. Also, you should create the child on creation of your main window, and just make it visible on the double click.
