In cases like this, I select all The text and then Use CopyToClipboard with
GetSelectedText As the parameter. Maybe it isn't the best solution, But it
works reliably.

Hi, experienced scripters!
I write a script where I have to query the text contained in a multiline
edit editbox (type WT_EDIT). Because the SendMessage function in JAWS
Script limited only to pass integers as param, I can't use this function
with WM_GETTEXT message, which would be the best solution. I tried the
method found in Jamal Mazui's old homer script set, which uses MSAA
retrieve control's text as follows:
string Function EditGetText (optional handle Controlhandle)
var
int i,
Object o,
string sReturn
InitHandle (ControlHandle, GetFocus ())
o = GetObjectFromEvent (ControlHandle, msaa_OBJID_CLIENT, 1, i)
sReturn = o.AccValue
NullObject (o)
Return sReturn
EndFunction; EditGetText
The problem with this solution, that it returns only the first 4096
characters of the contained thext. If it is longer, truncates it. The
solution should work not only in case of focused controls but with
hidden windows, too. In many times my script should be able to search
in text of a second window which is covered by other windows.
Does have somebody idea how to get the full text of the control?
Tanks in advance for every ideas!
Cheers,
Csaba
