Can't set text in Edit Box of ComboBox

[jg028461]

I'm not convinced you are.

should have different window handle values. SendMessage should be the combo handle and ComboBox_SetText should be the edit handle (assuming that as you state ComboBox_SetText is equivalent to SetWindowText). It might be useful to post the code for ComboBox_SetText. Also you are not checking the return values of ComboBox_SetText to see if an error occured.

hello 2kaud

Lets say this SendMessage is working in CBN_SELCHANGE according to you(I have tried from my side its not working), but after this CBN_SELCHANGE returns, the value in edit box will be set as current selection.
How should i stop it to set it current selection from list box(I know its normal behaviour of combo box but thats not working in my case).

Its having little complex functionality but whatever i am trying to achieve is easily possible.

I could do a lot of things that basically possible, but I never do that because it will confuse my customers.

yes, it can confuse customers but i want it to be more clear thats why this implementation is required for me.

May I offer you a compromise?
Have a simple drop-down box for your template. When user makes a selection - use it to construct your Subject field in ANOTHER edit box.
