Activate a Window whose caption varies

[jbjb]

Hi, very new so apologies if a basic problem.

I am trying to write a macro that enters some text within a window but the window's caption changes.

How can I get the macro to recognise the window despite the new caption? I don't want to rely on capturing keystrokes as my understanding is that the position of the window would have to be the same each time for this.

Many thanks!

You could try a partial match, handle feature, or loop through all the windows until you find the one that matches your criteria.

If you are able to get the handle feature to work, please post a code sample. I tried and tried...
