Question about edit-control

[sp00n]

How can I cut the number of chars in edit-control?
Please tell me:)

[Stefan Pendl]

From the Windows platform SDK:

Code Select Expand

lResult = SendMessage(      // returns LRESULT in lResult
     (HWND) hWndControl,      // handle to destination control
     (UINT) EM_SETLIMITTEXT,      // message ID
     (WPARAM) wParam,      // = (WPARAM) () wParam;
    (LPARAM) lParam      // = 0; not used, must be zero
);

Code Select Expand

SendMessage(  GetDlgItem(0,4003),  EM_SETLIMITTEXT,  4, 0);

Have you auto scroll on in resource file?
ES_AUTOHSCROLL
If so, take that off.
