- ***YOU MUST CALL SETTEXTHOOK() FIRST***
-
- 1) To start the 'no hide selected feature' call SetTextHook():
-
- Call SetTextHook(Text1hWnd%, hWnd)
-
- with the handle to the textbox and the form as arguments.
-
- 2) To start 'overstrike' mode call TextOverstrike():
-
- Call TextOverstrike(TRUE)
-
- with a boolean switch as the argument.
-
- 3) To set a bitmap as the caret call CaretBitmap():
-
- Call CaretBitmap(hbitmap)
-
- with the handle to a bitmap (from LoadBitmap() - see ex. in demo)
-
- 4) To unhook the textbox you call UndoTextHook():
-
- Call UndoTextHook(0)
-
- with zero as argument. ***This call will disable the textbox.***
- It can be reenabled with SetTextHook(). This is not by design. This
- is what happens!
