WM_CUT
An
application sends a WM_CUT message to an edit control or combo box to delete
(cut) the current selection, if any, in the edit control and copy the deleted
text to the clipboard in CF_TEXT format.

has no parameters.
Return Values
This message
does not return a value.
Remarks
The deletion
performed by the WM_CUT message can be undone by sending the edit control an
EM_UNDO message.
To delete the
current selection without placing the deleted text on the clipboard, use the
WM_CLEAR message.
When sent to
a combo box, the WM_CUT message is handled by its edit control. This message
has no effect when sent to a combo box with the CBS_DROPDOWNLIST style.
