EM_GETMODIFY

An application sends an EM_GETMODIFY message to determine whether the content of an edit control has been modified.

EM_GETMODIFY 
wParam = 0; // not used; must be zero 
lParam = 0; // not used; must be zero 
 

Parameters

This message has no parameters.

Return Values

If the content of edit control has been modified, the return value is TRUE; otherwise, it is FALSE.

Remarks
