MLM INSERT

This message deletes the current selection and replaces it with a text string.

Syntax

param1
PCHAR pchText;   /* Null-terminated text string. */

param2
ULONG ulReserved;  /* Reserved value, should be 0. */

Parameters

pchText (PCHAR) - input

Null-terminated text string.

ulReserved (ULONG) - input

Reserved value, should be 0.

Returns

ulCount (ULONG) - return

Number of bytes actually inserted.

Remarks

This message inserts the text string at the current selection, deleting that selection in the same manner as typing at the keyboard would. The text string must be in CF_TEXT format (or one of the formats acceptable to MLM_IMPORT) and null- terminated. The line-break (CR LF, LF, and so on) is counted as one byte, regardless of the number of bytes occupied in the buffer, and the null terminator is not counted.

This interacts with the format rectangle and text limits, and a return of less than the full count can be the result. If so, a notification message is sent.

Default Processing

The default window procedure takes no action on this message, other than to set ulCount to 0.
