Editing a Message Handler

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

The latest version of this topic can be found at Editing a Message Handler.

Once you have defined a message handler, you can go to the member function's definition to add or modify code.

To jump to a member function definition from the dialog editor, double-click a control for which a handler is already defined. This navigates you to the file in which the selected control's message handler is defined.

To jump to a member function definition from Class View, double-click the function name in Class View.
