I'm not sure what you mean. Do you want to read the contents of an edit field in a dialog?

No, static Text, Label Say in MessageBox it comes as Hi! This is for Test I want to read this

My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.

I don't think there are functions to do it that if you use MessageBox. But why do you want to do it anyway? You provide the label and text for a messagebox yourself so there's no need to read it.

Number of ways... e.g. GetWindowText() GetDlgItemText() Have a look in MSDN for more info on both these. If it's an MFC app dialog app and you have the Resource ID just use something like: GetDlgItemText(IDC_STATIC, string); where string in a CString reference, for example. Regards, Brian Dela :-)
