    Differentiate setting text from setting caption

    I can set the caption of a window with SetWindowText, and can also do the same with SendMessage with WM_SETTEXT = &HC as the message.

    Now I actually want to set the text not the caption of the window. Any help appreciated.

    What do you mean "the text"?

    Use the DrawText api to put text in a window. API Guide from allapi.net has examples. That what you meant? This creates graphic text, not editbox editable text. It will disappear at the next WM_PAINT.
