Hi, just found the solution myself: the key is to use ControlGetText since the GUICtrl functions are for use with AutoIt generated Gui only.

Hi all, first of all: I really like AutoIt! However, I got a little problem when trying to read data from the Gui using the following snippet: $handle = ControlGetHandle("[CLASS:TMainForm]", "", "[CLASS:TStaticText; INSTANCE:1]") $var = GUICtrlRead($handle, 1) Obtaining the handle for the control works, but at the end of the snippet, war will be 0! What am I doing wrong here? The AutoIt window info app does show the correct values! Thanks, mort
