I create an edit control by using CreateWindow("EDIT", ...). No problem
so far.
The problem I have is that I need to intercept its message processing
and alter its default behaviour. For instance, I need to suppress the
context menu that pops up when right-clicking the mouse, suppress the
cut-and-paste-ability, and alter other stuff.
Do I have to create my own window class and window procedure, or is
there any other way to hack into the edit controls message processing?

Thanks in advance,
Martin
