Can't get ID of button on app to be able to press it

[taylormade]

I have an Free audio editor called Wave Editor

http://www.wave-editor.com/

I want to be able to use Autoit to press the PLAY and STOP buttons, but when I use tht ID Tool to try to identify the buttons, the FRAME that the buttons are placed on gets outlined and that's as far as I can go.

Would anybody please look at this particular problem and help me solve it.

I'd love you for it.

Thanks in advance.

Its probably more difficult and you need to send the proper messages around

http://mh-nexus.de/en/delphimessages.php

VCL Control Notifications

VCL Control Notifications are just reflections of the corresponding WM_xxx messages. They are sent by a window to their parent  window (not VCL but Windows). This makes in Delphi no sense as the parent knows basically nothing about its child windows  and can therefore not handle them. Each of these messages contains in its lParam the handle of the child window which  has sent the message.  The VCL does nothing else then to add CN_BASE to the message value and sends the message then to the  window which created it originally. This way windows can handle their special messages themselves.
