I'm now trying to get some text out of gui application, WinGetText works great, but how could I get it to work more percisely? I mean, to get the text out of specific windows form, using the active window info tool, I was able to identify the ClassNN of that window form called "WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.2e0c68121", what's next? I looked at the help doc, but what I'm looking for was not part of the standard parameters of WinGetText function.

Search help file for ControlGetTextThe text visible on form may be a label caption. You can get its control ID by pointing Window Info Tool over the text you want to retrieve
