I am using Windows 2000 and I would like
to read the text labels in the dialup status 
popup window in the tray.

I would like to read the following labels and its values:

Status: Connected
Duration: 00:00:00
Speed: 52.0 kbps
..

Under Win98 this was easy using:

HWND hWnd;
char title[128];
hWnd = FindWindow(NULL, "Satus popup window...");
GetWindowText(hWnd, title, 120);

but I have no idea how to get this done in Windows 2000,
the information is not in the window's title, it
now in a tabset which I can't get to.

An example on how to do this would be appreciated.

Regards,

David
