Im trying to Read/Write text from the Console in Medal of Honor Allied Assault.
WinSpy++

Code:

X.exe
Console "User Console"
Edit ""
Button "Quit"
Button "Clear"
Edit "Initilization"

With the words inside the quotation marks being the windows caption, and before it the windows class name. (The names are made up, just an example)

Currently I am using this code to get the hWnd of the console:

Code:

Dim chWnd As Integer
chWnd = FindWindow("mohaa winconsole", vbNullString)
Dim ehWnd As Integer
ehWnd = FindWindowEx(chWnd, 0&, "edit", vbNullString)
Dim rtn As Integer = SendMessage(ehWnd, WM_SETTEXT, 0, "Test")

However, that does not work to send the text to the console.

From looking at this source here of how to set text to the console/read text from console:
http://www.mpcforum.com/archive/index.php/t-84687.html (8th post down)

As far as I can see this is what they do:

Get the console hwnd:
FindWindow(vbNullString, "Mohaa Console")

Call EnumChildWindows(Consolehwnd, AddressOf EnumChildWindowProc, 0&)

If it finds the right window it converts the string to a byte array and then uses sendmessage to send it to the mohaa console, but im trying to convert this/similar to vb.net
