INFO: EM_SETSEL wParam Not Used in Single Line Edit Controls

ID: Q102641


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1


SUMMARY

For an edit control, the EM_SETSEL documentation states that wParam is a flag for specifying whether to scroll the caret into view. When the parameter is zero, the caret is scrolled into view. When the parameter is one (1), the caret is not scrolled into view. This is only valid for a multiline edit control. For a single line edit control, the wParam flag is not used.
