Hi.
I have a EditBox into a DialogBox and I'd like to let it text only (and _ ). How can I do that? For number only i know that there is a flag XX_NUMBER, there is something like that to text only?
if not, what should I do?

PS: my dialogbox is a resource.

Teehee,

Subclass that instance of edit control and process WM_CHAR messages.

Since you're using a dialog resource for your editbox, get its handle using GetDlgItem.
Using SetWindowLong, change the editbox's procedure (GWL_WNDPROC attribute) and save the result (eax) for later.
All this goes into your WM_INITDIALOG handler.

Now the new procedure for the editbox will be like any other procedure.
In your WM_CHAR handler, check for anything between a/A and z/Z, and finally invoke CallWindowProc to resume the normal procedure. As you can imagine, lpPrevWndFunc is the result of SetWindowLong that you previously saved.

Phew

EDIT: I know Revolution, I know. But it takes some time to edit those f***** BBs.

EDIT2: typo

Perhaps if enough of us got together we could convince Tomasz to alter the forum code to accept the brackets?

There are problems not only with brackets, but also with other special symbols, which have to be typed as a hex codes preceded by '%', e.g. apostrophe

' = %27

Thank you so much, ManOfSteel.
