clevername47 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Does anyone know how I can get at the text of some standard VB6 label controls? The window info tool does not see their text. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clevername47 Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Already did. That's why I said "the window info tool does not see their text" - the standard methods don't work here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas?Thank you I think this occurs because VB6 uses old-school controls unless you apply a custom manifest for the XP ones.James Blog - Seriously epic web hosting - Twitter - GitHub - Cachet HQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
