disable user input

Question

Hi!

I'm new to WinAPI. I'd like to disable user input to a particular window, of which I've got a handle, and then re-enable it later.
Is there an easy way to do that?

Thx in advance for any help!

Answer 1

use EnableWindow(TRUE); and EnableWindow(FALSE); on the window handle

Answer 2

You can use EnableWindow(hWnd, FALSE) or use solution from this topic (using WM_KEYFIRST/WM_KEYLAST and WM_MOUSEFIRST/WM_MOUSELAST).
