Capturing Keyboard Input

[rdn2113]

I need to capture keyboard input when the input focus is set to a CCombobox control. What's the best approach to doing this?

Thanks!

Capture the KeyPress Event of the CComboBox ?

or the OnLoseFocus() event, adn just parse the data that has been entered.

The best method depends on knowing what u want to do (capture a string, or each char. and if so, why)

Use PreTranslateMessage(), check the params to see if the control to get the message is actually the ID of your combobox. if so, get the actual message, check to see if it's a keydown or char message, and do the appropriate coding.
