Button message in status bar

Hi.

I am using VC++ 1.51, Win 3.1

The application that I am working on currently displays brief messages in
the status bar when menu and toolbar commands are highlighted.  I would also
like to display a message in the status bar when a button in a dialog box or
formview is highlighted (i.e., depressed but not yet clicked).  But I do not
know what message to handle; I found a reference to ON_BN_HILITE but it
seems to be obsolete in Win 3.1 and up. I also want to do the same thing for
all controls -- I assume that for edit controls and the like that I would
trap the ON_EN_SETFOCUS etc message map.

Any suggestions as to how I can implement these messages would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Jackie Braun.

Hi Jackie,

The only way I can think of doing something like this would be subclass each
of the controls you want this behaviour and trap the WM_LBUTTONDOWN message
and send the text over to the statusbar.
