Returns the ClassNN (class name and sequence number) of the specified control.
ClassNN := ControlGetClassNN(Control , WinTitle, WinText, ExcludeTitle, ExcludeText)
Type: String, Integer or Object
The control's ClassNN, text or HWND, or an object with a Hwnd property. For details, see The Control Parameter.
Type: String, Integer or Object
If each of these is blank or omitted, the Last Found Window will be used. Otherwise, specify for WinTitle a window title or other criteria to identify the target window and/or for WinText a substring from a single text element of the target window (as revealed by the included Window Spy utility).
ExcludeTitle and ExcludeText can be used to exclude one or more windows by their title or text. Their specification is similar to WinTitle and WinText, except that ExcludeTitle does not recognize any criteria other than the window title.
Window titles and text are case-sensitive. By default, hidden windows are not detected and hidden text elements are detected, unless changed with DetectHiddenWindows and DetectHiddenText; however, when using pure HWNDs, hidden windows are always detected regardless of DetectHiddenWindows. By default, a window title can contain WinTitle or ExcludeTitle anywhere inside it to be a match, unless changed with SetTitleMatchMode.
Type: String
This function returns the ClassNN (class name and sequence number) of the specified control.
A TargetError is thrown if there is a problem determining the target window or control.
An Error or OSError is thrown if the ClassNN could not be determined.
A control's ClassNN is the name of its window class followed by its sequence number within the top-level window which contains it. For example, "Edit1" is the first Edit control on a window and "Button12" is the twelth button.
A control's ClassNN can also be determined via Window Spy, MouseGetPos or WinGetControls.
Some class names include digits which are not part of the control's sequence number. For example, "SysListView321" is the window's first ListView control, not its 321st. To retrieve the class name without the sequence number, pass the control's HWND to WinGetClass.
