parameters: Identifier of a Windows and a child Windows object

Stack

Stack	Position	Description
Stack(In)	Top	-
Stack(Out)	Top	a (transient) object

In contrast to GetValue you get the (transient) object connected to the window object instead of the visible string:

Numeric	CX_NUMERIC
Percent	CX_PERCENT
Fraction	CX_FRACTION
Date	CX_DATE
DigitalTime	CX_TIME
Button 230239	CX_BITMAP	If the button represents an image, then that image (primary only) is returned. Buttons that contain only text return INVALID. Also works on closed widgets.
Picture	CX_BITMAP	Also works onclosed widgets.
OleBox	CX_COM_OBJECT
MLOleBox	CX_MULTIPLE_COM_OBJECT	unused languages are automatically removed from the object with each access
Objectbox		see below

This is the original existing as a member in the window object - not a copy!

In case of an object box, GetObject brings the object belonging to the last selected entry on the stack:

Stack

Stack	Position	Description
Stack(In)	Top	-
Stack(Out)	Top	the last selected object

This is independent of whether the entry is currently selected or deselected (but compare GetObjectsSelected and the example).
