Gets the current state of a control.
GUICtrlGetState ( controlID )
| controlID | The control identifier (controlID) as returned by a GUICtrlCreate...() function, or -1 for the last created control. |
| Success: | the state. See GUICtrlSetState() for values. |
| Failure: | -1 if control is not defined. |

Exceptions:
For ListView controls it returns the number of the clicked column.
