Re: switching CRichEditCtrl to single line mode

Hi all,

I have a dialog with a rich edit box (CRichEditCtrl).
I need to set it to single line mode. I cannot do that in the resource
editor,
because I want to use the same dialog in both singleline an multiline
mode,
depending on the program logic.

I tried this:

from the OnInitDialog() I called
m_ctrl_text.ModifyStyleEx(ES_MULTILINE, 0, 0);

did not help.

then I tried to handle ON_WM_CREATE()

like this:

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(QMyRichEditCtrl, CRichEditCtrl)
//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(QMyRichEditCtrl)
ON_WM_CREATE()
//}}AFX_MSG_MAP
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// QMyRichEditCtrl message handlers

int QMyRichEditCtrl::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("hi"));
return CRichEditCtrl::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct);
}

but th handler does not get called.

Any ideas please?
