Hello,

Is there a way to have access to the text buffer of an Edit box from it
hwnd. I can use SetWindowText, but this function triggers the control to be
painted with the new text. I want to change the text in the underlying edit
box without displaying the new text.

Thanks for your help.

This is not possible.
The control will always show whats in it.
