Mark Hammond wrote a book on using Python with Win32. Google has lots of information about it. In large part, however, you are expected to be pretty comfortable with the Win32 API, and if you are, then figuring out the Python translations isn't that hard. In the meantime can use win32api.FindWindow. The "edit" within Notepad had control ID 0x0f. So, start up an empty Notepad. Then: import win32gui import win32con notepad = win32gui.FindWindow( None, "Untitled - Notepad" ) npedit = win32gui.GetDlgItem( notepad, 0x000f ) win32gui.SendMessage( npedit, win32con.WM_SETTEXT, 0, "Testing" ) -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
