I'm on my way to being a scripter due to my acquaintance with the .net 
framework and the C# language.  But until then, thanks.  And if It's UIA that 
the program uses (WPF UI), what then?

Hi Katherine,

I'm afraid you can't reclass unless you have a pretty good idea as to what it 
should be.

If you're a scripter, you can use the various scripting tools to take a look at 
the control's name or class (which often gives you a hint as to what it's being 
used for), or the MSAA info log using the WE Event app might tell you something.

If you're not a scripter, then you are usually left to trial and error (and a 
lot of the time, you have to set it back to "original" because whatever you 
chose is worse than what it was doing).

Sorry it's not easier than that, but if it is, I'm afraid I don't know about it.

Chip

Subject: how to know what to reclass controls as when encountered
Hello all,
                I was fooling around a few weeks ago with the WCF service 
configuration editor (a tool in the Windows SDK that I will need in future 
development endeavors), and I realized that some of the controls were custom 
according to WE, so I made an attempt at reclassing them.  I reclassed them as 
buttons not knowing what they were actually supposed to be, and whatever I did, 
that seemed to make them all disjunct and unreadable.  WE could read them, but 
it sounded like Gibberish rather than English.  What is the first step when 
trying to reclass a control in figuring out what it should be?  Thanks guys.
