Comments

An application can use this message to force the ink edit control to execute a valid command. For example, an application might have a toolbar button or menu item that can be used to trigger a copy command. The IE_DOCOMMAND message can be used in response to the user's pressing the button or selecting the menu item to have the iedit control copy the selected ink to the Clipboard.

The iedit control sends its parent an IN_COMMAND notification if the IEN_EDIT notify bit is set, to which the parent can respond in the usual ways. Sending a command that the iedit control cannot interpret (that is, a command code of IEM_USER or above) causes any specified notification but the iedit control takes no other action.

The IEN_EDIT bit is set by default. It should be cleared if the control's parent does not want to receive the IN_COMMAND notification message.
