Returns an array of items/rows from a ListBox, ComboBox, or DropDownList.
Items := ControlGetItems(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: Array
This function returns an array containing the text of each item or row.
A TargetError is thrown if the window or control could not be found, or if the control's class name does not contain "Combo" or "List".
An Error is thrown on failure, such as if a message returned a failure code or could not be sent.
Some applications store their item data privately, which prevents their text from being retrieved. In these cases, an exception will usually not be thrown, but all the retrieved fields will be empty.
