Does anyone know of a way to read text labels from a Win32 application.
I am familiar with using pywin32 and the SendMessage function to
capture text from Buttons,text boxex, comboboxes, etc, however, the
text I am would like to capture doesn't appear to be in a control.


This article tells the whole story

"The secret life of GetWindowText"

And for the headaches, see

"How to retrieve text under the cursor"

Anyway, msdn is the better address for problems like these.
