Combobox and edit control

[Holger Persch]

Hi!

How can I get a pointer to the edit control of
a combobox?

Thanks in advance
Holger

Did you try to to GetDlgItem with a value of 1001, it is an undocumented feature that has seen widespread use

CEdit* pComboEdit = (CEdit*)GetDlgItem(IDC_XXXXX); // XXXXX is the name of your combobox

Depending upon what you need it for (Dialog based, SDI, MDI, etc.), you may have to add this:
CEdit* pComboEdit = (CEdit*)(GetDlgItem(IDC_XXXXX)->GetWindow(GW_CHILD) );
