thanks, but the problem is that there is no text... i think $text is based on the control tab in the autoit window info...

the only thing that changes is the id and the classname of the frame.... how can i scan that with a script?

Use ClassnameNN.

While 1
  $text = ControlGetText("Garena", "", "[CLASSNN:RichEdit20W; INSTANCE:2]")
  If StringInStr($text, 'some text') > 0 Then ExitLoop
  Sleep(100)
WEnd

Look at the parameters.

i dont understand it... the classnn doesnt have any text as you can see in the autoit window info....

so it cant change...

There is no ControlGetClassname function as in your example so yes that would fail.

Btw try this:

ControlFocus("Garena", "", "[CLASS:RichEdit20W; INSTANCE:2]" )

$text = ControlCommand("Garena", "", "[CLASS:RichEdit20W; INSTANCE:2]", "GetSelected", "" )

or "GetLineCount" and loop "GetLine", line#.

For RichEdit control you must use RichEdit UDF.
