I'm about to give up on this but maybe someone can help:
I've got a complex form split into 3 regions each with a PageControl and loads of data aware components such as dbgrid, dbedit, dbcombo as well as labels etc.
I want to know when the user has selected one of the 3 regions by clicking
anywhere (label, dbedit, panel, dbgrid etc), and appropriately hilight that
region by changing the color of the background panel, grid etc.
Have tried trapping WM_LBUTTONDOWN etc as well as subclassing the form's wndproc, but this doesn't work as some controls have their own message loops.
I even tried to loop through all controls and set their FOnMouseDown private
fields (via TControl) to a common handler, but this is causing me exceptions
in database access for some unknown reason.
Any other ideas?
thanks,
Steve
