The function allows you to get the position of an UpDown control. The UpDown control often has a companion control called a "buddy" window. This function will report an error if the control does not have a buddy window, or if the buddy window has an out-of-range value.

The class name for this control is "msctls_updown32".

Example:

AddExtender("wwctl44i.dll",0,"wwctl64i.dll")
; Internet properties keep history.
Run("rundll32.exe", "shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL inetcpl.cpl,@0")
hwndex = DllHwnd("Internet Properties")
hwnd = cWndbyclass(hwndex,"#32770")
hwnd = cWndbyclass(hwnd,"msctls_updown32")
; Get the current value.
position = cGetUpDownPos(hwnd)
; Adjust the control relative to its current position
position = position + 1
; Set the number of days to keep pages in history via the up down control.
cSetUpDownPos(hwnd, position)
Exit
