title: How to block mouse inputs on dialog box in MFC
body: <p>I have a dialog based MFC application. I have a hidden Edit Control on it which has the default focus for reading USB connected scanner input. All other controls on the dialog are read only. But when user clicks on any of the controls, the hidden edit control loses the focus. How can I solve the problem, so that this hidden edit control has the focus even after user clicks on the dialog box anywhere.</p>
