Yes, you need to sub-class the window procedure for the edit field.
I don't have the references in front of me, but I know that Petzold has
an example in his book.  Basically, you write a window procedure that
handles all of the messages before passing the desired ones on to
the window procedure you are sub-classing.  Off hand, I don't remember
if you can do this for a single instance of the window type, or if
you have to handle all windows of the class.  Perhaps someone else
in netland remembers or has Petzold at hand.
