Re: Numeric spin control,

What I meant was, how would a non-brain-damaged MFC designer have addressed
the problem when designing MFC, the problem being the inability to reliably
call base class message handler functions using different parameters?

This is what I should be able to write. But of course, due to terminal brain death of
some MFC designer, this cannot possibly work.

I agree it's unfortunate that this doesn't work as everyone would like it
to, but how would you propose fixing it?
