Capturing info from Scrolling Screen
Keywords: screen scrape
Question:
How do I capture information from a scrolling screen?
Answer:
- Highlight the information with SendKeysto (Easy if Select All is available from a Menu or use
CTRL-A).
- Copy via Sendkeysto.
- Use ClipGet( ) to grab the string from clipboard.
- StrIndex(string, substring, start, direction) to search the string for the sub-string.
This will only work if the information is not too large. If the file is too large to
search the clipboard, copy the information to a file, .clp, .doc etc. and search
for it in the file copied to.
Generally, you can use the app's Save function to do this.
