I suppose you can simply use WM_GETTEXT, if not work then TTM_GETTEXT.

Hello Sean, i tried my best. I dont know about dll call. So i couldnt find a way to pass the necessary parameters. So, if you give me code and if you tell why you are passing tat parameter means, tat will be usefull for me and others also

You don't need DllCall(), can use AHK's function SendMessage. Anyway, I was perplexing why you asked it as AHK also has a built-in function WinGetText which I suppose uses WM_GETTEXT, but it turned out to not work with the tooltip.
Code:
WinGetText, sText, ahk_class tooltips_class32
MsgBox % sText

However, ControlGetText worked, so you can use it.
Code:
ControlGetText, sText,, ahk_class tooltips_class32
MsgBox % sText

Your code was very Simple. I couldnt find the class of Tool tip window. I have one doubt. Why the following code doent work? Can you explain me?
Code:
WinWait,ahk_class tooltips_class32
ControlGetText, sText,, ahk_class tooltips_class32
MsgBox % sText

How do you know the class of tool tip is tooltips_class32. I looked using Windows Spy. It shows only SysShadow for most of the cases of Creating And destroying windows.

Probably the tooltip you're interested in uses a custom control, not the Windows standard tooltip tooltips_class32.

BTW, there is no easy way to learn about Win32 API. You just have to keep practicing.

#32768 is the class name of the Windows standard menu. BTW, it implies that this technique will only work with Windows standard menus, but not with non-standard menus like the ones of firefox etc.


I see you were trying to help animeaime with getting the menu contents of Windows standard menus.

How can I get the contents of Firefox non-standard menus?

thanks
