Hi Alexandre,
A patch of yours from 2.5 years ago (http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=commitdiff;h=b72994b6d4a04352e18934...) changed the behaviour to not send WM_GETTEXT any more. My experiments on Windows show that WM_GETTEXT should be used. Can you remember what the reasoning behind the change in this patch was?

Probably to avoid potential deadlocks; I'm not sure there's one correct way, IIRC Win2k doesn't send them but XP does. Do you have something that depends on receiving them?

Yes, the table windows in the query designer in Access 2003. Access 2003 works on Windows 2000+.

Maybe it's NT4 that doesn't send them then. Anyway, if the app needs them I don't have a problem with adding them back.
