Problem capturing text from a Terminal Emulation program
#1
Anyone,

I am new with QM and I can use some help.

I am trying to capture the text from a terminal emulator program which connects to a unix accounitnh system.

I can't find the access object when I point to the screen under any of the tools.

In the hireorchical list of object that appear i can't drill down ot fiend the iobject containned the screen text so I can find the value text I am looking for.

I used Snagit text capture and it works fine by converting the capture screen text and gives it to me in the clipboard which tells me that it is not a graphics imgage. Another solution, also gave me the same result.

But I want and need to use QM for its power and flexibility. Once I get some pieces of information from the capture screen, I need to send it via COM to a VB com program.

Thanks

QM itself cannot get text from anywhere.
In the past I found 2 COM components that do it, both shareware but not very expensive for personal usage.
Screen Scrape Text Capture
Screen Scrape Text Capture

If it is a console window, try this:
Get console window text
