    hi ...

    my question is very clear .. :) how can i obtain value of selected text
    from another application's object ? (for example a kind of Tlistview in
    another application) i can send any message to application's object
    because i know that's handle number or can obtain it ...

    now, please tell me, is it possible or not ?

    PS : i have already tried code below ...

                   len:= SendMessage( hw, WM_GETTEXTLENGTH, 0, 0 );
                   If len > 0 Then Begin
                      If len > 255 Then len := 255;
                         SendMessage(hw, WM_GETTEXT, len+1, longint(@buf));
                      thereisatext := true;
                   End
                   Else
                      thereisatext := false;

    i mean WM_GETTEXT gives me window's text, of course if window has

    thanks in advance ...
