Hi, I'm having trouble with the Win32 MOUSEMOVE message. As soon as I move the mouve over my window app I get this message EVEN IF I DON'T MOVE THE MOUSE !! I was wondering if someone else had experienced this weird issue.... Thanks in advance.

Just check if the position of the mouse has really changed from the last reported position.

Thanks for the help,

actually I don't need the WM_MOUSEMOVE message because I use DirectInput as main mouse manager. However I wanted to check my code on the WinProc side of things and I discovered this "bug".
