Get CEdit control in CDaoRecordView

[Ross Bartick]

Hello all,

I am working on an MFC/DAO application. My CDaoRecordViews have a few CEdit
controls which allow me to edit my Database Tables.

I need to get a reference to the CEdit control which has the focus. I cannot
figure out how this is done. I want to put this code in my generic parent
class so I do not want to hardcode any dialog ids in the solution. I just
need a way to get a pointer/reference to the CEdit control which has the
focus.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

How about:
CEdit* pEdit = ((CEdit*)(pView->m_hWnd.GetFocus()));

Where pView is a pointer to the current CDaoRecordView class.

The above line will not work. It needs to be written as follows:

CEdit* pEdit = ((CEdit*)(FromHandle(pView->m_hWnd)->GetFocus()));
