Replacing Text

An application can replace selected text in an edit control by sending the control an EM_REPLACESEL message with a pointer to the replacement text. If there is no current selection, EM_REPLACESEL inserts the replacement text at the insertion point. The application may receive an EN_ERRSPACE notification message if the replacement text exceeds the available memory. This message applies to both single-line and multiline edit controls.

An application can use EM_REPLACESEL to replace part of an edit control's text or the SetDlgItemText function to replace all of it.
