Thanks, I already like and use WinMerge.
Also thank for the macro, I will study...
Still, I was thinking of an "editor text macro",
aka I type {Ctrl-Shift-T] in the editor part of VS with the [T] macro will write "SetWindowTextW(hwnd, L"Caption text"); at caret position.
Here is one of the things I've done so far...
Do not hesitate to tell if you see big No! No!
