Look up the EM_GETSEL message in the MSDN (msdn.microsoft.com/library - it makes a good download)

If you other window is a control window you can call

int GetWindowText(HWND hwnd, // handle to window or control with text
LPTSTR lp_string, // address of buffer for text
int count // maximum number of characters to copy
};
