Not clear. Sounds like not that you misunderstand "static variable" but just "variable". What is "take information from... variable"? Variable already has it "taken"... :-)
If you realize yourself what's your real problem you click use "Improve question" above and write about it. :-)

Assuming we are talking about a MFC edit box CEdit[^] and you have a variable connected to the resource.

You can use the GetWindowText[^] function.

C++

CString editBoxString;

editBoxControl.GetWindowText(editBoxString);
