WM_NOTIFY for EDITTEXT (Edit Control)

hey ho!

Would be grateful for any hint
Is there any similar notification code to WM_NOTIFY but which will work with Edit Control?
WM_NOTIFY unfortunately is not sent for Edit control and what i want to do is to:
1. check if the notification comes from certain identifier (here: IDC_inv_comment)
2. if it was double clicked
3. if (1 && 2 == true) then call the function "writetextfromdb" passing that identifier among other parameters.

This is the code i tried to use, the same one i used for e.g. ListView but it's not working for my EditControl:

Code:

---

  case WM_NOTIFY:
                switch((( LPNMHDR ) lParam )->code )
                {case NM_DBLCLK:
                if(((( LPNMHDR ) lParam )->idFrom ) == IDC_inv_comment)
                {writetextfromdb(hwnd, IDC_inv_comment, "t_invoices", "inv_dok_code"); }
                }break; break;

---

WM_NOTIFY is simply not sent for EditControls.

I also tried this:

Code:

---

case WM_COMMAND:
{
    switch( LOWORD( wParam ) )
      {
case IDC_inv_comment: if(HIWORD( wParam )==WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK) writetextfromdb(hwnd, IDC_inv_comment, "t_invoices", "inv_dok_code"); 
      }
} break;

but no success!

I will only add that the window from which the notification should come from is a dialog:

Code:

---

hdFVT=CreateDialog( GetModuleHandle (0), MAKEINTRESOURCE( 1000 ), hwMain, WndProc_dFVT );

---

in resources.rc:

Code:

---

LANGUAGE 0, SUBLANG_NEUTRAL
IDD_FVT DIALOGEX 0, 0, 319, 220 //where IDD_FVT has value 1000.
STYLE DS_3DLOOK | DS_CENTER | DS_MODALFRAME | DS_SHELLFONT | WS_CAPTION | WS_VISIBLE | WS_POPUP | WS_SYSMENU
CAPTION "caption"
FONT 8, "Verdana"
{
    EDITTEXT        IDC_inv_comment, 28, 113, 266, 25, ES_AUTOHSCROLL | WS_TABSTOP
}

---

i even tried to add CS_DBLCLKS style in resources.rc - but once again - no success!

WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK is NOT a notification code but a Windows message.
Did you try to handle WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK rather than WM_COMMAND?

Edit Control Notifications do not include double click event. To catch one you have to subclass the control and provide your custom handler for WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK message.
