Hi.

I hope i'm right in this newsgroup..


I need to make a small data exchange to/from a different Borland c++ Exe
file (like a remote control).

I need to read the Text in a StatusBar and some Edit and Listbox fields  of
a running exe file.
Is it possible to get the Text of a StatusBar or a Edit/Listbox field with a
API Call ?


( In addition i need to write to a Edit field and to a Stringgrid cell.
 I think this can be done by sending a keystroke to the program. Or is there
a good api function too? )


Thanks.
John

in No.4 (April 2002) there is a nice technique for inter-process 
communication

You can't access it unless you pay for it.
Am I wrong?
