Members
| Member name | Value | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| WM_ACTIVATE | 6 | The WM_ACTIVATE message is sent to both the window being activated and the window being deactivated. If the windows use the same input queue, the message is sent synchronously, first to the window procedure of the top-level window being deactivated, then to the window procedure of the top-level window being activated. If the windows use different input queues, the message is sent asynchronously, so the window is activated immediately. | |
| WM_ACTIVATEAPP | 28 | The WM_ACTIVATEAPP message is sent when a window belonging to a different application than the active window is about to be activated. The message is sent to the application whose window is being activated and to the application whose window is being deactivated. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_AFXFIRST | 864 | The lowest value for AFX message. | |
| WM_AFXLAST | 895 | The highest value for AFX message. | |
| WM_APP | 32768 | The WM_APP constant is used by applications to help define private messages, usually of the form WM_APP+X, where X is an integer value. | |
| WM_APPCOMMAND | 793 | The WM_APPCOMMAND message notifies a window that the user generated an application command event, for example, by clicking an application command button using the mouse or typing an application command key on the keyboard. | |
| WM_ASKCBFORMATNAME | 780 | The WM_ASKCBFORMATNAME message is sent to the clipboard owner by a clipboard viewer window to request the name of a CF_OWNERDISPLAY clipboard format. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CANCELJOURNAL | 75 | The WM_CANCELJOURNAL message is posted to an application when a user cancels the application's journaling activities. The message is posted with a NULL window handle. | |
| WM_CANCELMODE | 31 | The WM_CANCELMODE message is sent to cancel certain modes, such as mouse capture. For example, the system sends this message to the active window when a dialog box or message box is displayed. Certain functions also send this message explicitly to the specified window regardless of whether it is the active window. For example, the EnableWindow function sends this message when disabling the specified window. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CAPTURECHANGED | 533 | The WM_CAPTURECHANGED message is sent to the window that is losing the mouse capture. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CHANGECBCHAIN | 781 | The WM_CHANGECBCHAIN message is sent to the first window in the clipboard viewer chain when a window is being removed from the chain. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CHANGEUISTATE | 295 | An application sends the WM_CHANGEUISTATE message to indicate that the user interface (UI) state should be changed. | |
| WM_CHARTOITEM | 47 | Sent by a list box with the LBS_WANTKEYBOARDINPUT style to its owner in response to a WM_CHAR message. | |
| WM_CHILDACTIVATE | 34 | The WM_CHILDACTIVATE message is sent to a child window when the user clicks the window's title bar or when the window is activated, moved, or sized. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CLEAR | 771 | An application sends a WM_CLEAR message to an edit control or combo box to delete (clear) the current selection, if any, from the edit control. | |
| WM_CLOSE | 16 | The WM_CLOSE message is sent as a signal that a window or an application should terminate. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_COMMAND | 273 | The WM_COMMAND message is sent when the user selects a command item from a menu, when a control sends a notification message to its parent window, or when an accelerator keystroke is translated. | |
| WM_COMPACTING | 65 | The WM_COMPACTING message is sent to all top-level windows when the system detects more than 12.5 percent of system time over a 30- to 60-second interval is being spent compacting memory. This indicates that system memory is low. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_COMPAREITEM | 57 | The system sends the WM_COMPAREITEM message to determine the relative position of a new item in the sorted list of an owner-drawn combo box or list box. Whenever the application adds a new item, the system sends this message to the owner of a combo box or list box created with the CBS_SORT or LBS_SORT style. | |
| WM_CONTEXTMENU | 123 | The WM_CONTEXTMENU message notifies a window that the user clicked the right mouse button (right-clicked) in the window. | |

| WM_COPYDATA | 74 | An application sends the WM_COPYDATA message to pass data to another application. | |
| WM_CREATE | 1 | The WM_CREATE message is sent when an application requests that a window be created by calling the CreateWindowEx or CreateWindow function. (The message is sent before the function returns.) The window procedure of the new window receives this message after the window is created, but before the window becomes visible. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CTLCOLORBTN | 309 | The WM_CTLCOLORBTN message is sent to the parent window of a button before drawing the button. The parent window can change the button's text and background colors. However, only owner-drawn buttons respond to the parent window processing this message. | |
| WM_CTLCOLORDLG | 310 | The WM_CTLCOLORDLG message is sent to a dialog box before the system draws the dialog box. By responding to this message, the dialog box can set its text and background colors using the specified display device context handle. | |
| WM_CTLCOLOREDIT | 307 | An edit control that is not read-only or disabled sends the WM_CTLCOLOREDIT message to its parent window when the control is about to be drawn. By responding to this message, the parent window can use the specified device context handle to set the text and background colors of the edit control. | |
| WM_CTLCOLORLISTBOX | 308 | Sent to the parent window of a list box before the system draws the list box. By responding to this message, the parent window can set the text and background colors of the list box by using the specified display device context handle. | |
| WM_CTLCOLORMSGBOX | 306 | The WM_CTLCOLORMSGBOX message is sent to the owner window of a message box before Windows draws the message box.

| WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC | 312 | A static control, or an edit control that is read-only or disabled, sends the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message to its parent window when the control is about to be drawn. By responding to this message, the parent window can use the specified device context handle to set the text and background colors of the static control. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_CUT | 768 | An application sends a WM_CUT message to an edit control or combo box to delete (cut) the current selection, if any, in the edit control and copy the deleted text to the clipboard in CF_TEXT format. | |
| WM_DEADCHAR | 259 | The WM_DEADCHAR message is posted to the window with the keyboard focus when a WM_KEYUP message is translated by the TranslateMessage function. WM_DEADCHAR specifies a character code generated by a dead key. A dead key is a key that generates a character, such as the umlaut (double-dot), that is combined with another character to form a composite character. For example, the umlaut-O character (Ö) is generated by typing the dead key for the umlaut character, and then typing the O key. | |
| WM_DELETEITEM | 45 | Sent to the owner of a list box or combo box when the list box or combo box is destroyed or when items are removed by the LB_DELETESTRING, LB_RESETCONTENT, CB_DELETESTRING, or CB_RESETCONTENT message. The system sends a WM_DELETEITEM message for each deleted item. The system sends the WM_DELETEITEM message for any deleted list box or combo box item with nonzero item data. | |
| WM_DESTROY | 2 | The WM_DESTROY message is sent when a window is being destroyed. It is sent to the window procedure of the window being destroyed after the window is removed from the screen. This message is sent first to the window being destroyed and then to the child windows (if any) as they are destroyed. During the processing of the message, it can be assumed that all child windows still exist. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_DESTROYCLIPBOARD | 775 | The WM_DESTROYCLIPBOARD message is sent to the clipboard owner when a call to the EmptyClipboard function empties the clipboard. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |

| WM_ENABLE | 10 | The WM_ENABLE message is sent when an application changes the enabled state of a window. It is sent to the window whose enabled state is changing. This message is sent before the EnableWindow function returns, but after the enabled state (WS_DISABLED style bit) of the window has changed. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_ENDSESSION | 22 | The WM_ENDSESSION message is sent to an application after the system processes the results of the WM_QUERYENDSESSION message. The WM_ENDSESSION message informs the application whether the session is ending. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_ENTERIDLE | 289 | The WM_ENTERIDLE message is sent to the owner window of a modal dialog box or menu that is entering an idle state. A modal dialog box or menu enters an idle state when no messages are waiting in its queue after it has processed one or more previous messages. | |
| WM_ENTERMENULOOP | 529 | The WM_ENTERMENULOOP message informs an application's main window procedure that a menu modal loop has been entered. | |
| WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE | 561 | The WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE message is sent one time to a window after it enters the moving or sizing modal loop. The window enters the moving or sizing modal loop when the user clicks the window's title bar or sizing border, or when the window passes the WM_SYSCOMMAND message to the DefWindowProc function and the wParam parameter of the message specifies the SC_MOVE or SC_SIZE value. The operation is complete when DefWindowProc returns. The system sends the WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE message regardless of whether the dragging of full windows is enabled. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_ERASEBKGND | 20 | The WM_ERASEBKGND message is sent when the window background must be erased (for example, when a window is resized). The message is sent to prepare an invalidated portion of a window for painting. | |

The window enters the moving or sizing modal loop when the user clicks the window's title bar or sizing border, or when the window passes the WM_SYSCOMMAND message to the DefWindowProc function and the wParam parameter of the message specifies the SC_MOVE or SC_SIZE value. The operation is complete when DefWindowProc returns. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_FONTCHANGE | 29 | An application sends the WM_FONTCHANGE message to all top-level windows in the system after changing the pool of font resources. To send this message, call the SendMessage function with the following parameters. | |
| WM_GETDLGCODE | 135 | The WM_GETDLGCODE message is sent to the window procedure associated with a control. By default, the system handles all keyboard input to the control; the system interprets certain types of keyboard input as dialog box navigation keys. To override this default behavior, the control can respond to the WM_GETDLGCODE message to indicate the types of input it wants to process itself. | |
| WM_GETFONT | 49 | An application sends a WM_GETFONT message to a control to retrieve the font with which the control is currently drawing its text. | |

| WM_GETMINMAXINFO | 36 | The WM_GETMINMAXINFO message is sent to a window when the size or position of the window is about to change. An application can use this message to override the window's default maximized size and position, or its default minimum or maximum tracking size. A window receives this message through its WindowProc function. | |
| WM_GETOBJECT | 61 | Active Accessibility sends the WM_GETOBJECT message to obtain information about an accessible object contained in a server application. Applications never send this message directly. It is sent only by Active Accessibility in response to calls to AccessibleObjectFromPoint, AccessibleObjectFromEvent, or AccessibleObjectFromWindow. However, server applications handle this message. | |
| WM_GETTEXT | 13 | An application sends a WM_GETTEXT message to copy the text that corresponds to a window into a buffer provided by the caller. | |
| WM_GETTEXTLENGTH | 14 | An application sends a WM_GETTEXTLENGTH message to determine the length, in characters, of the text associated with a window. | |
