doubt in VC++ regarding Message Box
-
No matter who owns the messgae box. After something is displayed on the screen, it is no more available as text it will be bitmap. You will need to use OCR. I dont know if there is an alternative. I dont know if
GetWindowText()will work. But you will need the handle of that window still. :rose:Aljechin wrote:

I guess this would work only to catch its caption.:~

:confused:How to Extract information stored in the main part of any Message box window after it displays on Desktop? I want to retreive all the arguments send to Message box. The Message box is owned by a different application.
I feel it is very difficult to solve this problem. But I believe there is a solution for all problems. So here is a spark: We can manually copy the entire text and caption form a message box using Ctrl+C (am not sure, will it work for all the message boxes). Check the link : http://secretgeek.net/msgbox\_copy.asp http://weblogs.asp.net/chuckop/archive/2004/04/08/110153.aspx So my idea is: What about simulating the Ctrl + C and take the text from clipboard? It is only a spark :~

Nope, I'm in the middle of some process here, so I just put the question further there , If it worries you, leave it. I'll look about it in MSDN later. No problem!

Yup Alok, that's what I knew, it would internally use GETTEXT, but why does this get supressed when its called by GetWindowText? I tried to take the text off a notepad, but I failed there. Actually I got the handle of notepad's client window from spy ++ and tried GetWindowText, but didn't work. so you mean, here sending GETTEXT would work??
