Where would I find the commands needed to use when the library is accessible.

I'm using excel and have a lot of reports that are created to pdf files. I was wondering if there was a way to extract certain information from this pdf with VBA.

Is there anyway to count the time in idle? And if it reaches a certain amount of time show a msgbox or alert box? I would need it to count once logged in and reset evertime a key is pressed.

How can you do it through a macro. I was going to load Word, appactivate it, and sendkeys to it.

How can I get Extra to launch notepad or ms word?

I wrote a great macro in Casl Macro (InfoConnect), but I need it to access another session. The session uses Extra. Instead of writing all 800 or so lines in extra, is there any way I can have Casl Macro call an Extra macro to finish off the tasks?

Would I put: ses1.Screen.GetString(1,1,12) Where does it store the string? Can I do someting like: strWords = ses1.Screen.GetString(1,1,12) Or do I have to use PutString right after I use GetString? Would this work? ses1.Screen.GetString(1,1,12) ses2.Screen.PutString(2,9)

Sub Main () Dim ses1 As Object, ses2 As Object, Sys As Object Set Sys = CreateObject("EXTRA.System") Set ses1 = GetObject("c:\directory\file.nam") Set ses2 = GetObject("c:\directory\otherfile.nam") Sys.ses1.GetString(1,1,12) End Sub I...

Nothing seems to be working. Can an Infoconnect/Casl Macro screen exchange information with an Extra screen through any type of macro?

Is there anyway to call a session by its name? Kind of like an appactivate on a child window? Is this possible?

I have this long drawn out code for getting a future date. Several people say something like date() + 15 would work. Is this true? I haven't been able to get it to work.

I can use this to activate the other session... activatesession sessno("ABBS") but how to I get the macro to print in that session or putstring? Or can I make activatesession sessno("ABBS") some sort of object and do one of those... Session.Screen.Putstring string or Session.Screen.Print...

How can I activate another session and send/get text to/from it? Or can you tell me if there is a similar post with the answer to it?

Is there a way? I can set the focus bewteen two screens with "Sessno", but cannot print once I get the focus. It just goes back to the session that is holding the macro.

What is the name of the file? I saw one used by Hummingbird, but not one I can use. Is it an xws file?
