Our application uses C++/MFC. We have normal edit boxes and a type of edit box that is filled with spaces by default when it is empty. The problem is that it is possible to make a selection with the mouse of an empty edit box, which looks a bit silly.

How can I trap the EM_SETSEL message? Once its trapped I can check if the edit box has valid content and can be selected.
