Read Another App's RichEdit Box

[gamingmouse]

Hi,

I would like to read the text in the RichEdit control of a 3rd party application (a non autoit application). I've done some searching but can't figure which functions I would use here.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

gm

ControlGetHandle

GUICtrlEdit_GetText etc....

Gary, Thanks for responding. I was just about to edit my original post to ask if I could use your script somehow....

In your example file, you show to read selected text. However, how could I read all the text that was currently in the control? And then, on my next read, get only new text?

Thanks,

gm
