The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Controlling 3rd Party Application

Asked by revstudio in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

I am using EnumWindows and EnumChildWindows to get the handles of all running applications.

Say I am looking for a specific ClassName(CN) or MainWindowTitle(MWT) and once I find it I want to iterate through the controls of that specific form. How can I do this?

Basically what I am looking to do is launch an application, wait for the CN or MWT to show up, change the selection in a specific dropdown combo box, click a button (which launches a new form), wait for its CN or MWT to show up, fill in a few textboxes, and click another button.

I obviously don't expect all that code, but if I can get the control handles and maybe an example of how to do any function (click a button) I should be able to figure out the rest.

I tried uploading a 2MB .Zip file of my project but needless to say just about every file extension wasn't in the list.

Added a .JPG, thought it might help. The code snippet is what populates 'Form1' of the .JPG
