About Spin Control

[ManishaSantosh]

How to attach spin control to Edit Control which is designed in older version of the project, in MFC
dialog box.

The older version Edit Boxes are w/o spin controls .. and I need spin control now.

What to do ?

[VictorN]

Either use a resource editor to add the spin control and set its properties like UDS_AUTOBUDDY, UDS_AUTOBUDDY and so on
or create it dynamically using CSpinButtonCtrl::Create

Thank u Sir ..

I have already tried that but with resource editor , I failed to attach it to required Edit Box.
Now I will try dynamically

[VictorN]

Define "I failed to attach it":what exactly failed?

I believe that for AUTOBUDDY to work the spin control must immediately follow edit control in the tab order.

Sir ,
what mr Vald has said is 100 % correct .

U need to create Edit Control and then Spin Control with Auto buddy on . Then it is attached to
the Edit Control.

I have old dialog box with many Edit Controls in that and I need to attach Spin control to some
of them as an additional feature.

I tried hard to attach Spin afterwards .. not possible.

Either I need to delete Edit Controls and put new ones with spin or altogether a new dialog box.

I was just trying for any other simpler way.

[VictorN]

You don't need to delete anything. Just add Spin controls and then change the Tab Order of the controls to let every spin follow the corresponding buddy edit control
