How to get the EDIT?

[prog_tom]

I would like to know how to get the Value in EDIT1.

Try this:

    int len = GetWindowTextLength(GetDlgItem(dlghwnd, EDIT1));   
char* buf;
buf = (char*)GlobalAlloc(GPTR, len + 1);
GetDlgItemText(dlghwnd, EDIT1, buf, len + 1);
MessageBox(NULL,buf,"EDIT1 Text", MB_OK);        
GlobalFree((HANDLE)buf); 

That will work if you are using EDIT1 on a dialog box. If it's on a standard window and you know its handle, you can use the following code:

    int len = GetWindowTextLength(edit1hwnd);   
char* buf;
buf = (char*)GlobalAlloc(GPTR, len + 1);
GetWindowText(wndhwnd,  buf, len + 1);
MessageBox(NULL,buf,"EDIT1 Text", MB_OK);        
GlobalFree((HANDLE)buf);

GlobalAlloc is deprecated. Use HeapAlloc.
