 Posted: Fri Mar 08, 2002 10:23 pm Post subject: Getting text from child "windows" |
 |
|
Hi,
i need to be able to get the text displayed in a child window but don't know how.
In particular, i am trying to get the URL displayed in the combo/editbox of MSIE.
I used Winspy to get the class name #Edit, but it is a child window several levels down. I tried @wintext(#Edit), @wintext(#IEFrame|.....|#Edit), and so on, but can't get the text displayed.
Any ideas how i can do that?
Thanks in advance,
Serge

Hello,
You should be able to find it by using the @windows() function,
by looping through the Window ID #'s.
Example:
| Code: |
rem first find out what the class name is of the window
rem you want using window spy (that you've done)
rem I'm going to use #IE_Class because I can't remember
rem what the real class name is. 
%n = #IE_Class
rem then you find the CHILD of that window. See the help file
rem for more info.
%c = @window(#IE_Class,CHILD)
rem the number of steps should be the same for
rem each instance of the same window.
repeat
%c = @window(%c,NEXT)
info @wintext(%c)
until @not(%c)
rem then you can step through and count the steps
rem until you get to the right control.

I hope I didn't make it too confusing for you. I can make a better
example if you request it. I'm a little off tonight  .
I hope that helps!
