Hi everyone,
My problem is that I need to manipulate a tab control from another application (Actually I just ned to read its caption) Anyway I did find some clues on how to do it, but everything I find refers to C++. Now I really want to use VB but can't find any references for it. I sit because it's impossible to do it with VB. I think the control has something to do with WIN 32 Comm Control or the dll COMCTL32.dll.
Anyone? Should I just give up on VB accomplishing this for me?

No, unfortunatly it's not...

If its a microsoft product, you might be able to do it via DDE...

Nah, not Microsoft.
I found so many sites explaining how to read the label frm the Tab control in C++, not one in VB isn't that stange unless it's because it can't be done. I did find one site giving constants reffering to tab controls but can't seem to make them work in a sendmessage call???
