This is the power of event handling, HMG now can read the keyboard and intercept virtually all windows messages before they reach the application.

Nice, very nice man !!! Very interesting and usufull !

It would be very good to having in SAMPLES as Events\Monitor\Demo1.prg and ..\Demo2.prg for next releases..

Thank you Dr. Soto !

Hi Boys.
This is the power of event handling, HMG now can read the keyboard and intercept virtually all windows messages before they reach the application.
Try the example with the EXE file, tomorrow I prepare a patch with the upgrades.

Thank you, Sir
Please include code to create log file also

Yes I will include a log file, this is only a trial version, it is far from becoming useful as a debug.

I Based on the example of Carlos, I'm not getting even find the right handle of the control components of EditBox and RichEditBox.

Definitions of EM_SETCUEBANNER message by MSDN says:

Sets the textual cue, or tip, that is displayed by the edit control to prompt the user for information.

So these EDIT controls (EditBox and RichEditBox) should be possible to setcuebanner, but I can not find the way.

Unfortunately, has not way out for EditBox and RichEditBox, there are EDIT controls in MULTILINE mode.

I found from some internal resources (many other languages) that EM_SETCUEBANNER is only supported for single line edit box. This is not supported for edit boxes with style ES_MULTILINE.

At least now I know not to waste any more time trying to get it working.

Unless our genious could make up a trick modifying the INITEDITBOX c_editbox.c in order to simulate the same effect. Something like as creating a small window over the top of it that contains the placeholder text. Then when the user sets the keyboard focus to it hide the window and if the focus is removed and nothing is in the box then show it.

In my system IDE (unicode) empties the resource file and hbc files if I open any old ANSI project.

Does anybody come across the problem?
