    To overload the procedure just do this --

    Code:
    WNDPROC OldWndProc = SetWindowLong( hwnd, GWL_PROC, (LONG)NewWndProc );
    Obviously hwnd is the window handle and OldWndProc is the old window procedure, instead of using DefWindowProc in your NewWndProc use CallWindowProc, it is the same but the first param is the OldWndProc and then it's just hwnd,msg,wParam,lParam as normal.
