Well, as you didn't send a patch, I don't know much what you tried. I
would add some code in the ctlSQLGrid::OnMouseLeftUp method to log
something (either on a message box or on a log file). Just to make sure
it got the event. If it didn't, I would try to suppress all mouse event
handling in the test window.

AFAIK, if you intercept the event, you deal with it. Then you decide to
let the next layer take care of it... or not. It's your choice.
