Reading numbers from a greyed out field

[rm65453]

Hi Everyone,

I am creating a program that takes a file and updates inventory. I have done all the steps except cannot figure out how to find out the current inventory on hand as the field is inactive. I need to read the current inventory and then minus a value and then enter the result in the new inventory field. I cannot seem to figure out a good way to grabbing this value.

 

Thanks.

 

resolved with WinGetText

    ; Retrieve the window text of the active window.
    Local $sText = WinGetText("[ACTIVE]")

    ; Display the window text.
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $sText)
EndFunc   ;==>Example

solution.
