PRB: WM_GETTEXT Documentation Error in SDK Reference Volume 1 ID Number: Q71143
3.00 WINDOWS docerr
Summary:
SYMPTOMS On page 6-64 in the “Windows Software Development Kit Reference Volume 1,” the description of the message WM_GETTEXT is incorrect. The description of the WM_GETTEXT function incorrectly reads:
For lixt [sic] boxes, the text is the currently selected item.
RESOLUTION/STATUS WM_GETTEXT does not copy the selected text for list boxes. To copy the selected text from a list box, the LB_GETTEXT function should be used instead.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a documentation error on page 6-64 of the “Windows Software Development Kit Reference Volume 1.” The description will be corrected in a future version of the Windows SDK documentation.
