I think for child windows wm_getdlgcode is necessary for getting messages for arrow keys ,but in case of popup windows it not required.

Is your window derived from CWnd? Are you getting other Windows messages & keyboard messages? Is this a SDI/MDI or dialog based app? Can you post some small sample code? I've written many programs that get keyboard notifications
