==== WM_MOUSEMOVE$ And MDI Forms (OpenInsight Specific) ====

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?

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

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.

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.
