Two questions:
1.  What is 'I' set to,  I read the function three times and I only see it =
in the function call and not declared.
2.  Why is it necessary to set the object to null before returning the stri=
ng?  Shouldn't the object just get cleared?

Thanks,

Jon

Below is a function that may help (from the Homer Script Library).  It
assumes that MSAA constants have been included, e.g., via msaa.jsh

Jamal

String Function EditGetText(Handle h)
;Get text from an edit control via its window handle
' Seems like a max of 4K is returned

Var
Dim o, oNull,
String sReturn

Let o =3D GetObjectFromEvent(h, msaa_OBJID_CLIENT, 1, i)
Let sReturn =3D o.AccValue

Let o=3D oNull
Return sReturn
EndFunction
