Hi Win32lib developers,
here is a routine to get the ID of a combobox's editbox. This can be =
used to handle keystroke processing.
-------------
object CBedit
-- Combo boxes are automatically 'subclassed' by win32lib.
CBedit =3D findChildren(TheCombo)
for i =3D 1 to length(CBedit) do
if CBedit[i][2] =3D EditText then
-- get the ID to use.
CBedit =3D CBedit[i][1]
exit
end if
end for

Hi Derek,
Did you try that code out to see if you could intercept char events
once the id is obtained?

Yes, I did, and I could successfully handle onKeyPress and onKeyDown for the
subclassed ID.
