I was thinking about if there is a way to read Chat of a Chat Channel?

To read the chat messages, I recommend the following approach:

• Identify the chat window in the list from Sanderling?.MemoryMeasurementParsed?.Value?.WindowChatChannel by its caption.
• In that instance of WindowChatChannel, the chat messages can be read from the path MessageView?.Entry. This collection contains an entry for each displayed chat message.

To decide if any of the chat messages is new, use the Id property of the message as identifier.
