Message Map Return types

How to make ON_ENCHANGE message Map returning an int or CSize?

I have added this in the header file:
afx_msg int OnEnChangeEditmessage();

The message map I added was :
ON_EN_CHANGE(IDC_EDITMESSAGE, _OnEnChangeEditmessage)

My message handling function is:

int CPreferences::OnEnChangeEditmessage()
{
CPaintDC *pDC;
CSize size;

size = pDC->GetTextExtent(m_strMessage);
return size.cx;
}

Typecast OnEnChangeEditmessage in ON_EN_CHANGE(IDC_EDITMESSAGE, OnEnChangeEditmessage) to the original prototype.

Stop! Wrong way.

All message handlers that are put inside the message map have specific declarations.
In your case the prototype shall look like this, the identifier name excepted:

afx_msg void OnEnChangeEditMessage();

You cannot change the return type for message handlers. You have to solve whatever problem you're having in another way. All message handlers in Win32 always return an LRESULT. In MFC this is hidden so MFC message handlers for windows returns void, like above. But if you write a message handler for a user defined message you still have to return an LRESULT, even when using MFC.

Describe your problem if you want suggestions for alternative solutions.

Going a layer further than Roger's reply - take a look at the EN_CHANGE notification docs.
There is no return value. Even if you returned something it would be ignored by the system.

every Message map has it specific handler... you have to consult MSDN for same

There are two seperate application dialog.
on one dialog there is one text box as well as check box and on other dialog
there is one button.

now if I press on second dialog's button,then some text should be set on
first dialog's text box and checkbox.

I am able to set text of checkbox but not able to set text into edit box.
I used logic like following
CWnd* pWnd = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL,_T("TestDialog"));
if (pWnd)
{
pWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
pWnd->SetForegroundWindow();
pWnd->SetDlgItemText(1003,"Hello");
pWnd->SetDlgItemText(1001,"Hello111");

}

Can anybody tell me how to set text on other application dialog's edit box

Thanks,
Prakash

What happens if you use of GetDlgCtrlID() instead 1001

Now I have question about getting ID or handle of the edit box of other application dialog ?

You can use of this code if we suppose you have two dialogs Main and Local then insert this code on the Local

CMain *m_pMain=(CMain*)GetParent();

m_pMain->function or variables on other dialog

BOTH THE DIALOGS ARE PART OF SEPERATE APPLIATIONS.
SO First I can get the handle of dialog windows of other application but problem about it's edit box.

You can use of EnumChildWindow for enumerates child windows and the use of GetClassName and check if returned class is EDIT also see here[^]
