Environment

Novell SecureLogin
NSL6.0
NSL6.1
Windows Application

Situation

Unable to script for failed login
SecureLogin does not recognize failed login error message
Error message is written on the current screen; no new window appears with the error.
Windows finder sees the message but ReadText command does not



Resolution

Create a dialog statement where the title matches the error message and
include the windows event that produced the message in the dialog statement.  Use spy++ to detect the windows event. 

Example:

Dialog
   Title "The user name and password combination you have entered is incorrect. Please try again."
   Class "Static"
   Event "WM_SETTEXT"
   Parent
      Class "#32770"
      Ctrl #1005
      Ctrl #1006
   EndParent
EndDialog
