Getting values

[TokalaFox]

I know how to get values from most objects, such as counters and active objects, but how would one go about getting/testing the contents of an RTF box or Edit box?

The Edit box doesn't have a condition that directly tests its contents, so you have to get to it with an expression instead. For example, use the "Compare two general values" condition, and "Retrieve data from an object" on one of the fields - you'll be able to select the Edit box from there and select "Get text". (I think the expression that you'd type in directly is Edittext$("Edit Box"))
