Hello,

I am not understanding how WM_MOUSEHOVER works.  I can't seem to get it to
work using Windows API in Borland Builder v5.  I am using C/C++ with no VCL
nor MFC.

I have set up the TRACKMOUSEEVENT structure as follows:
    TRACKMOUSEEVENT tmEvent;

    tmEvent.cbSize = sizeof(TRACKMOUSEEVENT);
    tmEvent.dwFlags = TME_HOVER;
    tmEvent.hwndTrack = hwnd;            // for testing, use main window
    tmEvent.dwHoverTime = 1000;        // hover time is 1 sec

    TrackMouseEvent(&tmEvent);
.
.
.
then in WindProc.......

    switch(msg)
    {
        .
        .
        .
        case WM_MOUSEHOVER:
                //  do something here
        break;
    }  // End switch

am I doing something wrong???

Thanks in advance.
