Rodrigo,

Try this:

1. Use FindWindowEx to get the handle of the edit control:

hedit := FindWindowEx( oCombo:handle, 0, "Edit", Nil )

2. Get the text of the edit control.

The function FindWindowEx:

HB_FUNC( FINDWINDOWEX )
{
hb_retnl( (LONG) FindWindowEx( (HWND) hb_parnl(1), (HWND) hb_parnl(2),
(LPCSTR) hb_parc(3), (LPCSTR) hb_parc(4) ) ) ;
}

Regards,
Marcos Gambeta
