We use the following code to be able to get a reference to the TX Text Control ActiveX 15:

uLong iul_hWin//, iul_hWin2

iul_hWin = Handle ( rte_note)
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "PBTxTextControl", 0 )
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "AfxOleControl42u", 0 )
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "TX15P", 0 )

And then can use the uLong reference for the Sentry SpellCheck:

SSCE_CheckCtrlBackgroundRecheckAll(iul_hWin, 8, RGB (255, 0, 0 ))

Does anyone know how to get the Refence to the TX Text Control ActiveX 28 in Powerbuilder 2021, Build 1506.

Thanks
Jim

Hi Jim,

Please try to work around it with the following code:

iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "PBTxTextControl", 0 )
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "AfxOleControl90u", 0 )
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "TX28", 0 )

 

If it still doesn't resolve the issue, please provide a reproducible test case(PBT/PBL) to us for more analysis.

BTW, for the different class names for different PB versions, you can use the Spy++ tool that comes with VS to get the relevant information.

 

Regards,

Does iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "TX28", 0 ) works?

Andreas.

Hi Jim;

  My guess is that they changed the "Class" names.  This might help you snoop around for them...

Hi,

There's a little program called WinID: https://dennisbabkin.com/winid/

 

Use "TX28" and "AfxOleControl90u".

Thanks, the following works:

uLong iul_hWin

iul_hWin = Handle ( rte_note)
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "PBTxTextControl", 0 )
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "AfxOleControl90u", 0 )
iul_hWin = FindWindowEx ( iul_hWin, 0, "TX28", 0 )


SSCE_CheckCtrlBackgroundRecheckAll(iul_hWin, 8, RGB (255, 0, 0 ))


Thanks
Jim

Hi Jim;

  Here is my WinExplorer PB App that I mentioned in an earlier reply. Note that can it locate the classes in memory as Mark suggests. It's a great App for seeing everything in any MS-Windows O/S including internal tasks, services, system tray, etc processes. Also, if you do not own the Enterprise Version of VS to get SPY++ - WinExplorer is also free. PLus, it's all written in PowerScript - so you can see the full "power" of PowerBuilder at work! ;-)

Regards ... Chris
