When the form loads, the program uses SetWindowLong to give the TextBox a new WindowProc. When the form unloads,
the program restores the original WindowProc. This is important. If it does not do this, the program will be unable
to properly unload the subclassed control and will crash.
|
|
Private Sub Form_Load()
' Set the control's new WindowProc.
OldWindowProc = SetWindowLong( _
txtMenuDisabled.hWnd, GWL_WNDPROC, _
AddressOf NoPopupWindowProc)
End Sub
' Restore the original WindowProc.
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
SetWindowLong _
txtMenuDisabled.hWnd, GWL_WNDPROC, _
OldWindowProc
End Sub

The new WindowProc simply calls the original WindowProc to process all messages except the WM_CONTEXTMENU message
that makes the context menu appear.
|
|
' Pass along all messages except the one that
' makes the context menu appear.
Public Function NoPopupWindowProc(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal _
msg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As _
Long) As Long
Const WM_CONTEXTMENU = &H7B
If msg <> WM_CONTEXTMENU Then _
NoPopupWindowProc = CallWindowProc( _
OldWindowProc, hWnd, msg, wParam, _
lParam)
End Function
