in my Edit.
I tryed the :
but it doenst show me the spin
g_hWndEditBref= CreateWindow( TEXT("Edit"), TEXT("0000"), WS_CHILD |
WS_VISIBLE | WS_BORDER| ES_AUTOHSCROLL | ES_AUTOVSCROLL | ES_MULTILINE,
100, 50, 80, 36, hWnd, NULL, g_hInst, NULL);

g_hWndBrefSpin= CreateWindow(TEXT("UpDownClass"), NULL, WS_VISIBLE |
UDS_ALIGNRIGHT | UDS_NOSCROLL,
100, 40, 16, 16, hWnd, NULL, g_hInst, NULL);
SendMessage(g_hWndBrefSpin, UDM_SETBUDDY, (WPARAM)g_hWndEditBref, 0);

if fact : the g_hWndBrefSpin= CreateWindow(TEXT("UpDownClass"),...

returns a NULL pointer so CreateWindow failed.
but WHY ?

To create an Up Down control, call InitCommonControlsEx first, then
create a window of the class UPDOWN_CLASS (defined as "msctls_updown").

Yes. It's a control that expands to full screen, designed only for
the smartphone platform.

thanks for your help
Arrgg I forgot the InitCommonControlsEx this time again...
now I put :
// Initialize special control
INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX icce;
icce.dwSize = sizeof(icce);
//icce.dwICC = ICC_LISTVIEW_CLASSES | ICC_TREEVIEW_CLASSES |
ICC_BAR_CLASSES | ICC_TAB_CLASSES | ICC_UPDOWN_CLASS | ICC_PROGRESS_CLASS |
ICC_DATE_CLASSES;
icce.dwICC = ICC_UPDOWN_CLASS;
InitCommonControlsEx(&icce);

but the

g_hWndBrefSpin= CreateWindow(TEXT("msctls_updown"), NULL,
WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | UDS_HORZ |UDS_ALIGNRIGHT |
UDS_ARROWKEYS | UDS_SETBUDDYINT |
UDS_WRAP | UDS_EXPANDABLE,
0, 0, 0, 0,
hWnd, (HMENU)nBrefSpinID, g_hInst, NULL);
still giving NULL
I also tried : CreateWindow(TEXT("UpDownClass"), ...
NULL also ???

but g_hWndBrefSpin= CreateWindow(UPDOWN_CLASS, NULL, WS_VISIBLE |
UDS_HORZ |
UDS_ALIGNRIGHT | UDS_ARROWKEYS | UDS_SETBUDDYINT | UDS_WRAP
| UDS_EXPANDABLE,
0, 0, 0, 0, hWnd, (HMENU)nBrefSpinID, g_hInst, 0L);

works !!! so here is the name of the class :UPDOWN_CLASS
bye
I have : Pocket PC 2003 (ARMV4) profile
is ther a pb with that ?
