I have derived the CHtmlEditCtrl, and want to be able to react when the control gets or looses its focus. However the standard MFC OnSetFocus and OnKillFocus handling routines are not being called.
I presume it has something to do with the control actualy being a wrapped ActiveX control.
I have tried giving it the WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT and WS_TABSTOP styles on creation as suggested here, but it did not help.
I found somewhere that I should make my control the event sink for HTMLDocumentEvents2, but I would rather avoid that if possible.
EDIT: Spy++ says I should be getting WM_PARENTNOTIFY and WM_MOUSEACTIVATE messages. However, my Derived Class receives absolutely no messages. I tried it with OnSize and OnCreate too. No message whatsoever is being sent. Any idea?
