Hey Mark,
Here is the sample code for identifying double click in a Title Bar.
For more information see subclassing in MSDN.
Create a new standard Exe project with
(1) From1.Frm
(1) Module1.Bas
Put the below Code in Module1.Bas
******************************************
Declare Function CallWindowProc Lib "user32" Alias _
"CallWindowProcA" (ByVal lpPrevWndFunc As Long, _
ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal Msg As Long, _
ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As Long
Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias _
"SetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, _
ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long
Public Const GWL_WNDPROC = -4
Public Const WM_DBLCLICK = 163
Global lpPrevWndProc As Long
Function WindowProc(ByVal hw As Long, ByVal uMsg As _
Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As _
Long
If uMsg = WM_DBLCLICK Then
MsgBox "You Double Clicked My Title Bar"
End If
WindowProc = CallWindowProc(lpPrevWndProc, hw, _
uMsg, wParam, lParam)
End Function
***********************************
Put Below Code in From1.Frm
************************************
Public Sub form_load()
lpPrevWndProc = SetWindowLong(Me.hwnd, GWL_WNDPROC, _
AddressOf WindowProc)
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
Dim temp As Long
temp = SetWindowLong(Me.hwnd, GWL_WNDPROC, _
lpPrevWndProc)
End Sub
***********************************
You may find it little difficult to step through in Debug mode, but should
be able
to execute and see the result. If you put this code in your application,
better comment it out
while debugging other areas of your code and uncomment it once application
is ready.
Let me know if you have any problem in executing this.
Enjoy
