I have created an application that 'talks' to another one by simulating keystrokes. I have come up against a brick wall in one area. I have to read some text that is on a window that is a Centura:ChildTable.

There appear to be api's that let you read the column's label but not the data from the table. For example; the window lists all of the customers with their name, ss# and birthdate horizontally in the window. I am trying to see if customer Smith is on the window. If not, I will page down till I find him.
I am unable to find an API that will let me read the name of the individual customers in the table.

Is this possible with the API's.


Thanks,
Mark
