Retrieve a Window Title

[MikeSr]

I have tried the GetWindowText command as shown:
GetControlText>SomeProgram - [C:\Users\Mikesr\Documents\01 BANYAN\01 Engineering\MCL.xxx] (Runtime 00:12:35),,1,strText

I need to examine the part of the title (Runtime 00:12:35), as it is constantly changing. I have replaced the Window name as follows:
GetControlText>SomeProgram - [C:\Users\Mikesr\Documents\01 BANYAN\01 Engineering\MCL.xxx] (Runtime *),,1,strText

The string returns: ##NOSUCHOBJECT##

Once I can read the Window Title, I can then parse the string "strText" to examin the time.

Just can't seem to read the Window Title.

Hi MikeSr,

Try "View System Windows" from the menu to see how/whether it is identified there.

The * must be the last character of your wildcarded window name.

Also, you just use Runtime* as the wildcard means "contains".
