LVM_GETEDITCONTROL

This message retrieves the handle of the edit control being used to edit a list view items text. You can send this message explicitly or by using the ListView_GetEditControl macro.

LVM_GETEDITCONTROL wParam = 0; 
lParam = 0;

Return Values

The handle to the edit control indicates success. NULL indicates otherwise.

If no label is being edited, the return value is NULL. The edit control is not created until after the LVN_BEGINLABELEDIT notification message is sent.

Remarks

When the user completes or cancels editing, the edit control is destroyed and the handle is no longer valid. You can safely subclass the edit control, but you should not destroy it. To cancel editing, you can send the list view control a WM_CANCELMODE message.

Windows CE OS 1.0 and later Commctrl.h    

Note   This API is part of the complete Windows CE OS package as provided by Microsoft. The functionality of a particular platform is determined by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and some devices may not support this API.
