Subj : Context menu

Hi.

In my app, I have a window that contains a number of child windows, one of
which is an edit control. This window processes the WM_CONTEXTMENU message
to popup my own context menu whenever the user clicks the right mouse button
over any of the controls in this window.

However, since this is a 32-bit app (BC5.02 under WIN2K) the edit control
has its own context menu that pops up if the right mouse button click occurs
over it. Is there an *easy* way of preventing this so that only my context
menu pops up? That is, a way other than writing my own code to intercept and
process the WM_CONTEXTMENU message within the edit control.

TIA
