Hi,

I have an activeX control that is broken inside Internet Explorer until I
click the tab key a few times. Then the arrow keys work for a list box etc.

My control is non MFC, using ATL and WTL. Could someone tell me how to fix
this issue for a non MFC control. I read somewhere virtual BOOL
PreTranslateMessage should be modified to check for IsDialog message, but
that's MFC. I also read it may be something to do with UIActive not being
sent to the control by design in IE.

Anyone solved this problem for an ATL control?

regards
