Reading Window Messages

you can also use the ::RegisterWindowMessage function

const UINT WM_MYMSG = RegisterWindowMessage( "WM_MYMSG" );


and then if you use MFC add a Messagehandler like this:

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP( CMyWnd, CMyParentWndClass )
ON_REGISTERED_MESSAGE( WM_MYMSG, OnMyMsg )
// ... Possibly more entries to handle additional messages
END_MESSAGE_MAP( )

OnMyFind hast to be a member function defined as:

afx_msg LRESULT OnMyFind (WPARAM, LPARAM);

if you don't use MFC, catch WM_MYMSG in yor WindowProc

Thanks BigA and Marc G.

I have also read the same MSDN files.

I still cannot put this together to read the broadcast message.

Cheers
