Help reading lobby list box, on PokerStars

[crowbait]

When you start up your Poker Stars software, it presents you with the main lobby.

There's a large scroll box on that form.

I simply want to read each line of that list box.

I'm trying to give that list box the focus, and then click on a line, and then read the text of the line I just clicked on.

I'd then like to move the cursor down to the next line, and read that text.

Then move the cursor to the next line, and read that text, and on, and on.

I'm trying this:

$var=WinGetTitle("PokerStars Lobby","")

msgbox(0,"title",$var)

;WinActivate($var)

ControlFocus($var,"",1023)

controlshow($var,"",1023) ; Is that scroll box hidden?

$y=controlgettext($var,"",1023)

msgbox(0,"",$y)

I can never seem to get any text returned. $y is always blank.

Any ideas?

Note: AutoIt only works with standard Microsoft controls - some applications write their own custom controls which may look like a standard MS control but may resist automation. Experiment!

P.S.

You posted in the wrong forum.
