Hello,
I have a problem, I need to read text from a text box in another application.
Using Spy++ I found that the text box's class is Internet Explorer_Server
I tried SendMessage and a few other functions but it didn't work.
Thanks in advance.

GetWindowText can get only the Text from the main window (if you give it a HWND from another process)
I'm not sure if will can work with textboxes but anyways, you can also use pipes.
Here is a thread that discusses this issue in detail
(I think) He wants to get text from an application which is not related to his. I dont know of any basic API function for this, you'd probably need some sort of hook to intercept the text flowing to the other programs controls.
