Windows API Guide: MULTIKEYHELP Structure


The edit control's window class descibes a regular text edit box.

The button control's window class is registered automatically when Windows starts. The name of the class is "EDIT".

Styles

ES_AUTOHSCROLL
Automatically scroll the text to the right when the user types a character at the end of the line. When the user pressed ENTER, scroll the text all the way back to the left.
ES_AUTOVSCROLL
Automatically scroll the text back up when the user presses ENTER on the last line.
ES_CENTER
Center the text horizontally.
ES_LEFT
Left-align the text.
ES_LOWERCASE
Convert all the characters to lowercase as they are typed.
ES_MULTILINE
The edit control displays multiple lines of text. If this flag is not specified, it can only display a single line of text.
ES_NOHIDESEL
Do not hide the selected text in the edit control even if the control loses focus.
ES_NUMBER
Only allow digits to be entered into the edit control.
ES_OEMCONVERT
Ensure that text in the edit control can readily be converted into the OEM character set.
ES_PASSWORD

ES_READONLY
Do not allow the user to edit the text in the control.
ES_RIGHT
