Why do you need this? Are you going to steal somebody's passwords?

As your already mentioned this does not work on Win2k and above.
But there are some hacks (i.e. hooks, what a nice play on words Wink | ;)

) here at codeproject.
Maybe someone knows a direct link, I don't find the article right now.

edit box - with popup

I'm trying to come up with a way to have a popup come up when my edit box receives focus.

I've tried the OnFocus, but there were problems with that.

What I want is a soft-keypad to come up so the user and input data.

Any ideas.

Thanks in advance.

Jim

Use some kind of static boolean flag variable in OnFocus handler and don't allow renentry into code which opens keypad.

I see that this is probably the only way with an edit box. But I think there will be a problem of the focus staying on the edit box and the dialog coming up when the window looses then recieves focus will the "cursor" is still in the box.

Is there a command to move the focus to another "safe" place?

just set focus to another field when the dialog closes?

CEdit* pNextField = (CEdit*)GetDlgItem(IDC_ANOTHERITEM);
pNextField->SetFocus();

??

Hi,
Anybody knows how create a modal dialog box initially invisible ?

Thanks,
Cristiano

Well, if it's modal and invisible your UI will be effectively frozen. Why do you want to do this?

I want to use somes functions and received messages WM_USER in a only function, that will return when all functions and messages have been processed, but no appear the dialog. Like this:

BOOL fMyFunction()
{
//This dialog box have the functions and the
//messages to be processed.
CClassDlg objDlg;

if (objDlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
return TRUE;
else
return FALSE;
//My function will return when all done.
}

In the properties of dialog change the 'visible' property to false.Then add the bool variable to your class.Lets name it m_bFirstShowWindow and in constructor make it true.Then overriden OnWindowPosChanging and put this code in it:

void CYourDlg::OnWindowPosChanging(WINDOWPOS* lpwndpos)
{
	CDialog::OnWindowPosChanging(lpwndpos);

	if(lpwndpos->flags&SWP_SHOWWINDOW)
	{
		if(m_bFirstShowWindow)
		{
			m_bFirstShowWindow=FALSE;            
			lpwndpos->flags&=~SWP_SHOWWINDOW;        
		}
    }
}
