Hi, i don't know if this problem is known.

The code is:


This should work because the help says "To operate upon a control's HWND (window handle), leave the Control parameter blank and specify ahk_id %ControlHwnd% for the WinTitle parameter (this also works on hidden controls even when DetectHiddenWindows is Off)"

But with no success. What i need to do is to select text before the windows is showed. In Vista, this works, but not in XP.

It's a bug?
