Thread: wm_keydown and dialogs

Hi,
I'm new to Windows progamming and was wondering if
someone could please post or show an example on how to use wm_keydown with dialogs?

Thank you

Here's my attempt:

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include "calc.h"

BOOL CALLBACK CalcDialogProc(HWND hWnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
	switch(msg)
	{
		case WM_INITDIALOG:
		return TRUE;


		case WM_COMMAND:
			switch(LOWORD(wParam))
			{
			}
			break;
   	case WM_KEYDOWN:
		switch(LOWORD(wParam))
			{
				case 1:
				MessageBox(hWnd,"message","title", MB_OK);
    	SendDlgItemMessage(hWnd,IDC_PUSHBUTTON1,WM_KEYDOWN,0,0);

				break;
			}
		return TRUE;


		case WM_CLOSE:
				EndDialog(hWnd, 0);
				return TRUE;
	}

	return FALSE;
}

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
	 LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
	DialogBoxParam(GetModuleHandle(NULL), MAKEINTRESOURCE(DIALOG_1),
			NULL, (DLGPROC)CalcDialogProc, 0);

	return 0;
}

Are you looking for something like this?

Code:

case WM_KEYDOWN:
      switch(LOWORD(wParam))
     {
          case 49:          
          case VK_NUMPAD1:                
                   SendDlgItemMessage(hWnd, IDC_PUSHBUTTON1, BM_CLICK, 0, 0);
          break;
          case 50:
          case VK_NUMPAD2:
                   SendDlgItemMessage(hWnd, IDC_PUSHBUTTON2, BM_CLICK, 0, 0);
          break;
          default:
          break;
     }
break;

I think am. Am I suppose to replace my wm_keydown section with yours?

Yep, that'd probably be a pretty good place to start if you want to see what the code does...
