SBM_GETPOS message

The SBM_GETPOS message is sent to retrieve the current position of the scroll box of a scroll bar control. The current position is a relative value that depends on the current scrolling range. For example, if the scrolling range is 0 through 100 and the scroll box is in the middle of the bar, the current position is 50.

Applications should not send this message directly. Instead, they should use the GetScrollPos function. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. Applications which implement a custom scroll bar control must respond to these messages for the GetScrollPos function to function properly.
