I am trying to implement the common find dialog box in
the OWL framework. I can get the dialog box to appear, but

1. I can't use the tab key to move around inside the dialog
box. I didn't understand the Help file which says that
IsDialogMessage() must be called. By enabling the KB handler
it is, yet it still didn't work.

2. Most importantly, I can't see how to incorporate the
RegisterWindowMessage() and the DefWndProc code into the
OWL framework. I think I can register the FIND.. message
in the constructor of my TWindow descendant. But I am
not quite sure where to add the message trapping code. I 
assume I will have to inheret and change alot of the
TWindowsObject routines.

I would really appreciate some help. Thanks alot in
advance.
