hi people.

how do i know if the user is in the proccess of editing an event on the calendar.
i want to catch the esc key

my form uses esc to close so i want to know if the user just presses esc to end editing of the event.
if thats the case then i do not have to close the form.
thanx

In MFC there is public function in CXTPCalendarView class

virtual BOOL IsEditingSubject()

which give the answer of your question. I am not sure it exposed to Activex but this is easy.

But Esc as accelerator to close the form is not safe by many reasons - it good only for most simple cases e.g. MsgBox.

Even simple standard windows Calc app not closed by Esc
