    edit controls

    Hello again peoples, so I was just learning how to use win32 api and I got stumped by how to put the text from edit into a variable when the user pushes a button, I already know how to do stuff when the user pushes a key down or something I just need to know the actual code that puts the characters into a char or something, your help is appreciated.
    Thank You.
    (this isn't for homework its just personal entertainment.)

    I don't think this adds a null character to the end of the string so you'll have to check the return value for the number of returned characters and do that yourself.

    You should be over in the Windows Programming forum for this.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
