I just got the ToolkitPro and have been experimenting with the WinExplorer sample. The address combo box is updated whenever I select something in the tree control, but entering something directly into the edit control of the combo box seems to be ignored. (The OnAddressBarEnter() and OnSelEndOkAddressBar() functions are never called.)

Where are the combo box notifications going?

Hello,

OnSelEndOkAddressBar called when user show list of combobox and choose some item. OnAddressBarEnter indeed never called - was just copied from Samples\UserInterface\GUI_Explorer :(

Hi Oleg:

OnSelEndOkAddressBar is called if I select one of the entries from the drop-down list. But if I type a new entry in the edit control and hit return, it is not called -- is there any notification sent for the edit control in the combo box?

Hi Oleg:

I discovered that adding a PreTranslateMessage() to my mainfrm window with a:

if ( IsDialogMessage( pMsg ))

return TRUE;

will call OnAddressBarEnter after entering something in the combobox edit control, so that's a workable solution.
