Enumerating Child Windows

[maverick786us]

I have the handle to a 3rd party DialogWindow (lets say 0x10056) now I want to enumerate the handes number of child windows present in that. How can I accompalish this?

Thanks in Advance

Not surprisingly, the function is called EnumChildWindows.

Thanks. Now that I have the list of child windows. I have 2 questions
1) Using WM_GETTEXT can I extract the text from those windows? Whether the child window is a label, editbox, radiobutton, checkbox etc?

2) Is there a way I can even get the positions of those windows? For example within a Window I have marked an area using CRect. I have to extract the child windows that lie only within that rectangle area. So how can it be accompalished?

Thanks in Advance

1. GetWindowText

With one exception: This function cannot retrieve the text of an edit control in another application.
2. GetWindowRect

I gave you a link to MSJ Q&A article in your another thread. Did you read it?

Doesn't GetWindowRect API work?
There is also MFC CRect class with a lot of useful methods such as PtInRect and others...
