Overriding controls response to WM_GETDLGCODE in a CDialog

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hi. I have a bunch of (legacy) controls in an MFC CDialog. I am
running into problems because the controls aren't getting keyboard
control. I realize that I can fix this by adding a WM_GETDLGCODE
handler to the controls which returns DLGC_WANTALLKEYS.

However, I am trying to find a way of solving this without changing
the controls' code. I suspect that there is a way of hacking around
this by modifying a CDialog::PreTranslateMessage() function behavior,
but my attempts to do this have been unsuccessful so far.

Any ideas? Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance...
