My code involves standard Scroll Bar control and it happens that I need to change its value programmatically in some cases. I do this using SetScrollInfo function, as in this example:

void setScrollBarValue( HWND scrollBar, int value )
{
    SCROLLINFO si = { sizeof( SCROLLINFO ); }
    si.fMask = SIF_POS;
    si.nPos = value;
    ::SetScrollInfo( scrollBar, SB_CTL, &si, true /* redraw */ );
}

This appears to work fine (the thumb of the scrollbar moves around) but it fails to notify the rest of the application of the new scrollbar value. For instance, an edit control which uses the scroll bar (much like in the Windows notepad application) fails to scroll around because it doesn't get notified about the new scrollbar value.

In case it matters: the scrollbar I'm modifying is not in the same process as the above setScrollBarValue function.

Does anybody know how to achieve this?
