Difference Between GetCtrlAttribute and GetCtrlVal

[byrd01]

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the difference between the GetCtrlVal function and GetCtrlAttribute (with ATTR_CTRL_VAL) is?  I know that there is a difference between SetCtrlVal function and SetCtrlAttribute, but cannot find any documentation indicating the difference between the "Gets".  I seem to recall that GetCtrlAttribute does not work with some control types, but other that this small difference, are there any advantages to using one over the other?

Thanks!

On the "Get" side, there really is no difference between the two. Also, they should both work on the same exact set of control types.
