How to trap a keystroke in a CDialog subclass?

[Juan Dent]

Hi,

I have this CDialog subclass and want to catch all keystrokes pressed while it is active. I used class wizard to create a method

void CFindFileTypesDlg::OnKeyDown(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags)


attached to the macro ON_WM_KEYDOWN() in the message map, but it does not catch any keystrokes.


Specifically I want a shortcut like CTRL-C to activate the copy feature while the focus is in a listbox inside the dialog.

What am I doing wrong?

Regards,
