How to get the data from edit control

vc _fragrance

Hi, I have used the following code to display the text in edit box and a combobox respectively. How can I get the data from these controls. CEdit *Display; Display = reinterpret_cast(GetDlgItem(IDC_EDITCAMPAIGNID)); Display->SetWindowText("tejaswini"); CComboBox *Combo; Combo = reinterpret_cast(GetDlgItem(IDC_COMBOFORMAT)); Combo->SetWindowText("shilpa"); Combo->AddString("Radhika"); Combo->AddString("Lakshmi"); But when i executed the program I am getting only "Lakshmi" in the dropdown list.How can I get "Radhika" also in the drop down list. Can u plz help me. Thanks in advance.

or if you have the id of the edit control and no variable associated to it... GetDlgItemText() or use SendMessage() etc...

char *str=new char[10];
GetDlgItemText (IDC_EDITCAMPAIGNID,str,10);
AfxMessageBox (str); // You have the data in str
delete[] str;

Why suggest this when CString is preferable? Allocating memory is expensive. Unnecessarily interacting with the memory manager is just asking for trouble. Had you used a CEdit member variable, one line of code would be all that's necessary.

if you have a variable of CEdit you can use from it m_Edit.GetWindowText(...); if you have ID of control you can use GetDlgItemText for text and GetDlgItemInt for number:)
