Yes, subclass the listbox and handle the mouse messages yourself.

I wonder if it is possible to set breakpoint on something like kernel32!CreateFileA in WinDbg. When I try to execute this command:
bp kernel32!CreateFileA
I get this error message:
Type information missing error for CreateFileA

You have to install the symbols which you can find in Microsoft WinDbg site.

Thank you for your reply. Symbols from MS sysmbol server are installed and loaded.

You can download the symbol files for the OS in one hit. Another option is to select "File->Symbol File Path ..." and enter "SRV*C:\Symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols". This sets up WinDBG to use Microsoft's symbol server. Symbols that can't be found in your local symbol cache ("C:\Symbols") are downloaded from Microsoft and placed in the cache. Microsoft makes sure their symbol server is updated and it contains symbols for some of their products and not just system DLLs. Initially things may be a little slow while your symbol cache is filled (as it will be empty to begin with). Symbols are downloaded as needed and you don't have to worry about which version of Windows you're using or which Service Packs and Hotfixes have been applied.

Thank you for your reply. But as I said symbols are installed and loaded correctly. I can verify this by issuing lm command:

These symbols are downloaded from MS symbol server (as you suggested in your post).
As you can see symbols are loaded for kernel32.dll but still WinDbg does not allow me to set breakpoints on its exports.

As you can see I was able to place a breakpoint even though the symbols for user32.dll are only export symbols. Does this work for you?

Found source of my problem. Some time ago I set _NT_EXPR_EVAL=c++ to experiment with C++ expression evaluator and forgot to disable it after.

Great tip 
I don't use winDbg much, how good is it, where can i find more info about winDbg?
Master.. Master.. where are the dreams that i've been after...

I'm not sure of any WinDBG "how to" - Probably a good idea for an article for someone. The reason I started using it is that produces good stack traces and can analyse crash dumps.

Hi all,
I found that there is some margin in the left side of the EditCtrl and the text inside it. It depends upon the font that set to the EditCtrl. Do anybody know how to calculate that margin?
Thank you.

Use WM_NCCALCSIZE and WM_NCPAINT to trigger a WM_NCCALCSIZE.

Use GetWindowRect to get window dimensions
and
Use GetClientRect to get client area dimensions. The difference is the NC area or the border.
GetWindowRect returns screen coordinates. So you may have to convert any of them to either form.

I did the following.
CRect WndRect, ClientRect;
m_Edit.GetWindowRect( &WndRect );
m_Edit.GetClientRect( &ClientRect );
m_Edit.ClientToScreen( &ClientRect );
int nMargin = ClientRect.left - WndRect.left;
I got nMargin as 2. I know that is the border width. But actually there is a space Inside the client left and text. I mentioned that as the margin. I set the font as Arial 14, and from screen shot of the control I can measure this margin is about 8 pixels wide.

Look up CEdit::GetMargins() and the EM_GETMARGINS message. Also CEdit::SetMargins() and EM_SETMARGINS.
You may be right
I may be crazy

Wow...! It is working fine. Thank you.
One more question, 
Can I guess it without having an EditCtrl. But the font is with me.
What I need is I have to make an static text control to be same as edit ctrl.
Hope you got what I meant.

Why do you want to do this? A readonly edit control should suffice!

But I dont need the text caret and text selection.

Then CBS_DROPDOWNLIST should be it.
From the docs:
CBS_DROPDOWNLIST: Similar to CBS_DROPDOWN, except that the edit control is replaced by a static-text item that displays the current selection in the list box.

Exactly pal...
But the problem they are not the same.

Why do you think they are not the same? It what way do they differ!

Just a simple example can show the difference. If we place two ComboBoxes, one CBS_DROPDOWN and other CBS_DROPDOWNLIST, and the font to be Arial 14, we can see the difference in margin.

I have created a custom combo box from CComboBox. It should fully ownerdrawn. So I have to make all colors configurable. For DropDown ComboBox there is no problem yet. But in DropList this is not the case. When this combo is disabled the colors cannot be configured. So I put a static text control above the text area of that combo as child programatically. Now I need to give a margin in the left side.
