1. Single line RichEdit
Heya all,
Is there a way to make a RichEdit single line only? Basically, I want to
turn off the windows flag "want return" and get rid of that stupid tiny
little scroll bar (I've always thought that Windows should hid a scroll
bar unless it needs it, but they've just never fixed that.)
Any thoughts?

Well, I don't know. WS_CLIPPINGCHILD wasn't defined so I changed it to
WS_CLIPCHILDREN and it gave me this:
Error code 461
Failed to acquire a hWnd when creating a control.
Win32Lib v0.59.1 08-June-2003
Press Enter...

Okay, that must be new to the the next release. It is just a combination
of ...
constant WS_CLIPPINGCHILD = WS_CHILD + WS_CLIPSIBLINGS
The reason you got a failure with just WS_CLIPCHILDREN is that you need to
specify WS_CHILD if your control has a parent.
