#define INCL_WINENTRYFIELDS
 
EM_SETSEL
mp1 = MPFROM2SHORT((USHORT) usFirst, (USHORT) usLast);    /* range */
mp2 = 0L;                                /* not used, must be zero */
 
An application sends an EM_SETSEL message to set the range of a selection in
an entry field. If the first character position is zero and the last
character position is greater than or equal to the number of characters in
the entry field, the entire text is selected.
