Can Send_Message(QUALIFY_EVENT) be used with WM_MOUSEMOVE$ to send cursor position messages from an MDI Child form to its frame (owner)?



I have tried specifying the frame as the recipient of the message in the child form's create event with no success.



Any ideas?

<QUOTE>Greg-



Have you tried with X,Y coordinates, relative to the MDI child area?

<QUOTE>Greg,



AFAIK QUALIFY_EVENT will only return WINMSG messages to the window which it was sent to by Windows in the first place.  



So if you captured the WM_MOUSEMOVE in the child window you could then pass the data on to your MDIFrame in some way.

<QUOTE>Carl & Mike --



Thanks for the help.



I was trying to use:



Send_Message(Frame_Name,'QUALIFY_EVENT',WM_MOUSEMOVE$,TRUE$)



in the child form's create event, and this wasn't working.  I tried Carl's suggestion and used



Send_Message(Child_Name,'QUALIFY_EVENT',WM_MOUSEMOVE$,TRUE$) and then did my frame processing in the child's WINMSG event.
