Hi.
How can I catch a message from a child window in MFC environtment? I mean for example the LVN_KEYDOWN notify from a listview, which is not associated with an object of type CListView. I create this control in the CDailog::OnInitDialog() function of the dialog and I hold the handler in a member variable of the class. I couldn't find a way to do this with Class Wizard and Wizard Bar.
You can add message handers for the control via the Properties window. The message map would look something like this:
ON_NOTIFY(nMessage, nControlID, MessageHandler)

Thank you, Kurphyn, but it doesn't seem to work.
I create the list view like this:
And in the message map of the class of the dialog box I have this:Code:hListView=::CreateWindowEx(NULL,WC_LISTVIEW,"#1006", WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | LVS_REPORT | LVS_EDITLABELS, 0,0,500,250,this->m_hWnd,NULL,theApp.m_hInstance,NULL);
where I have defined:Code:ON_NOTIFY(LVN_COLUMNCLICK, IDC_MAIN_LIST_VIEW, OnColumnClicked)
And I have the function:Code:#define IDC_MAIN_LIST_VIEW 1006
But this function doesn't seem to be called.Code:void CKasaDBDlg::OnColumnClicked(NMHDR *pNotifyStruct, LRESULT *result ) { int i=1; i++;//here it is a breakpoint }
P.S. This function is declared as follows:
Code:afx_msg void OnColumnClicked(NMHDR *pNotifyStruct, LRESULT *result );

Any suggestions?
Where did you define IDC_MAIN_LIST_VIEW?

In the resource file:
Workspace->Resources->Right Click and from the pop up menu "ID=Resource Symbols"
In the createwindowex call
"HMENU hMenu, // menu handle or child identifier"
else the control has ID# == null

Thank you, novacain.
It was my mistake. I thought that the child identifier is passed trought the lpWindowName parameter as "#num" like this:
Code:hListView=::CreateWindowEx(NULL,WC_LISTVIEW,"#1006",...
