Title: Coordinates of field box
Post by: mjwillyone on September 08, 2021, 11:40:16 am

I have a script that puts me at the data entry point of a program.  There is data in a box where I am.  My goal is to copy the text that is in that box.  Unfortunately using SendKeysTo and CTRL-C don't work.  So, I have found that if I use my mouse to double-click the box, the text is highlighted and THEN I can use the copy keystrokes to grab the data.

Is there a way to get coordinates for that box and get the mouse pointer in there to do the work?

Thanks!
Mike

Have you tried using RoboScrp to see if you can use the ControlManager Extender to access the data?
