The CallWindowProc function handles Unicode-to-ANSI conversion. You cannot take advantage of this conversion if you call the window procedure directly. The winuser.h header defines CallWindowProc as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant.

How to use callwindowproc in VBA x64?

There is already an example on the internet for x32 that works well, but on x64 it doesn’t. I have already made all possible corrections for the correct operation in x64 such as using LongPtr, and also functions with LongPtr when available. The form is open, however, the performance is horrible, it locks the screen too much for anything.

What does the setwindowlong function do in Win32?

The SetWindowLong function creates the subclass by changing the window procedure associated with a particular window, causing the system to call the new window procedure instead of the previous one. An application must pass any messages not processed by the new window procedure to the previous window procedure by calling CallWindowProc.
