I try to get the path out of the adress bar of the Windows Explorer in Labview. How could I get access to this information.

Hi,

you can work with the user32.dll to get the information!

In the attachement you can find an example...

Hi,
thanks for your answer, but if I understand the example right, you get the window title.
I need to get the adress or better the file path wich is shown in the adress bar of the Windows explorer.

Hi,

with this example you get the Window ID!
The window title is needed for the identification!

If you want the file path of the adress bar, you should ask microsoft for further informations!
