COM_GetObject()

[Michael Clease]

Thanks for your work Roberto, I see a few applications for this coupled with the Comm module for the instruments I work with.

Marcel,

the function that you need already exist, it's hWnd = Win_FindByTitle(WindowTitle [, FindMethod])

I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean with

open ole_objects

do you mean Open Office?

Ciao,
Roberto

Hi Roberto,

Thanks for the win_findbytitle() function. This makes it a lot easyer.

No, I just mean instances of MSWord or Excel objects.

Kind Regards

Marcel

Marcel,

Win_FindByTitle is in UI module. Hope it is what you are searching.
It can work with partial windows names, see help. But it will not work with child windows so if your MSWord uses different windows it will work fine other wise, old Word versions worked MDI. In this case Win_FindByTitle will not find child MDI windows.

Ciao

Hi Eros,

Thanks for the information. I use MSOffice 2002/2003 and I think it uses child MDI windows but I don't know for sure. The function looks the same but I have to test it.

Kind regards,

Marcel

Marcel,

I've checked and Word 2003 uses multiple windows one for each document so WIN_FindByTitle will be able to find different open documents using window title. The same for Word 2000.

Ciao
