Question

how I can receive the name of a control which placed in other application?

comments: with "Microsoft Spy++" I can receive the "class name" of a control(for example TButton, TrzEdit, TAdvSmoothButton ... etc.) but I need to receive tha actual name of a control(for example: Button1, Button2 ... etc.).

can you help me???

Solution

Why you need the name?

Using Spy++ you can get both the dialog handle and the handle of the control you are interested in and then you can use them in your code.

e.g.

UINT WINAPI GetDlgItemText(
  __in   HWND hDlg,
  __in   int nIDDlgItem,
  __out  LPTSTR lpString,
  __in   int nMaxCount
);
