IValueProvider::get_Value method (uiautomationcore.h)
The value of the control.
This property is read-only.
Syntax
HRESULT get_Value(
BSTR *pRetVal
);
Parameters
pRetVal
Return value
None
Remarks
Single-line edit controls support programmatic access to their contents by implementing IValueProvider (in addition to ITextProvider). However, multi-line edit controls do not implement IValueProvider.
To retrieve the textual contents of multi-line edit controls, the controls must implement ITextProvider. However, ITextProvider does not support setting the value of a control.
IValueProvider does not support the retrieval of formatting information or substring values. Implement ITextProvider in these scenarios.
