Control instances

[mike1234]

I am attempting to reference a control but the id is shared by more than one instance of this control. Is there a way to reference a control based upong position for instance selecting the control with the smallest y coordinate. I tried this using controllistview and and controlgetpos but I could not figure out how to make them work.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Welcome to the forums!

Each control must have its own unique ID. Are they overlapped?

What is the result of running this code?

MsgBox(0, "Class List", WinGetClassList("Your App Title"))

Edit: Parenthesis fixed

Each control can be referenced in the classnameNN notation.

For example, if your window has multiple Buttons you can access them as "Button1", "Button2", etc...
