    wm_ controls and controlling other windows

    I have searched a bit about the wm_controls and I want some help on controling other windows and sending text to them if you know the control name. Can someone give me a site or some code to start fooling around with? It looks pretty interesting.

    Look through some of my recent posts. I posted an example of how to press buttons on Window's calculator app.

    You're going to need to use FindWindow, FindWindowEx, SendMessage. Your WM (Windows Message) will depend on what you want to do.

    You'll also have some cases where you can work with a window without having to use SendMessage/WMs. You'll always have to use FindWindow and probably have to use FindWindowEx.
