Hi... I don't know how to program for windows yet, but there is something I would really like to be able to do in with a windows program. I would be so thankful if someone could point me in the right direction, whether it's even possible, or too hard to try for another 2 years or so... Hopefully it's simple enough that you could just tell me what I need to do in euphoria to accomplish it... Anyhow... this is what I would like my program to do... Read what text is printed to a window from another program... And send text to a window in the same program... I don't know about windows(95 by the way), but I know a lot of people have written their own programs that work and interact with AOL, or Netscape or Internet Explorer... so I know it's possible, but do you have to have permission from the author of the program to write helper applications for it? Do you have to know the names of the procedures that the program uses? Even if these were the case, is it possible to write a program that runs in the background and "manipulates" the current active window? Help would be much appreciated... Always Learning, Bill
