VB Label hWnd

[VB6Coder]

Does anyone know how to get a VB Label controls window handle?



Thanks in advance
:)

I think VB directly draws these onto the form, rather than use a API EDIT window, to conserve resources.

yep, labels don't have window handles, sorry!

What are you trying to do? Perhaps as a work around, you could use a PictureBox?

[V(ery) Basic]

OR ... you could do your very own CreateWindowEx thing and create a STATIC control on your form. Then SendMessage it the text you want it to carry.

A "PictureBox" is to a "Static" as a "TextBox" is to an "Edit."
In other words, a PictureBox is a just VB's version of a Static.
