Please help to port "PopFav" to v2 Topic is solved

Re: ControlGetText Fast ?

Hi mikeyww,

In your case, yes. In my case, no. My "Elapsed time" would be 100ms at best, usually over 150~250+ ms. Please understand I have a reason to ask such question. I need to get multiple lines of text out of a control and I am looking for ways to make it run faster.

ControlGetText Fast ?

According to the doc, " ControlGetText always retrieves the text using the slow mode ... ". I would like to know if it's possible to override this setting and let ControlGetText run at a faster speed? Or it needs a source code level change?

Thank you.

numbers in X.Xk back to numerical numbers Topic is solved

hi all,

i used ControlGetText to grab a number but the number came in a format like 10.1k(means 10100 ?), 91.158k, 130.332k, etc

my question, is there an easy way to translate back to numerical numbers?

much thanks.
