How to get the text from another window?

hi,all

For example, In MSDN help program, there are many items in the left list box
when you type whatever key word. Can I get these itmes' text in anohter
program? I did a test, put a CListBox in a dialog and then , in another
program, get the handle of this list box and use list.Attach(handle) , then
you can get all text by the list. But in msdn help program, it is not a
CListBox, how to do that? Is possible?

Thanks

Maybe you are not getting an answer because of the way you
are stating your question.

Say:
(1.) what you would like to do in a few words
(2.) what you have done yourself to achieve that objective
(3.) where you encountered which problem.
