Greetings, I'm trying to obtain tooltip text from an application called VSampler3. It's a program designed to create virtual musical instruments to be used in a sequencer. The program is about 12 years old and is no longer under development. For this reason I've been trying to use AutoIT to create a script that will convert Vsampler's project files into an open source text format mapping sound samples to a virtual piano keyboard. I've attached a screen print below of one of VSampler's tooltips of which I'm trying to obtain the text from. I'm not sure, but it seems the program may be using it's own controls rather than those from the Windows API, but then I'm not sure. I'm hoping someone could point me to a function(s) that can obtain this info and how to use it. Even if it can't be done, thank you for taking the time.

Thank You much

Greetings, My apologies if this question is too easy, repetitive, or if this is the wrong place to ask. I'm a noob to AutoIT. I'm working on a script that opens (for example) notepad followed by the Open File dialog ( Send ("^o") ). When a file is selected, and the Open button pressed, the file and it's path are returned to notepad. Is it possible to capture that Path\File information to my script? If anyone could post some code, that would be helpful, but really all I need is for someone to point me to the some functions. I could look up their usage from the help file. Thank You.

Awesome, thanks for the info. It was helpful!

Quick question, no specific coding question, just curious to know what the difference is between FileFindFirstFile returning a -1 and setting the @error to 1. The help file seemed sort of vague whaen they state "Failure: Returns -1 if error occurs", what other kind of error could there be other than an empty directory? It seems to Return -1 when there are no files in the folder, but it also sets @error to 1. So what other errors (if any) would Return -1. Seems sort of redundant. Just curious.
