Hello:

I was wondering if someone could give me some direction in leaning how to access and control other windows using a separate program. For instance, I want to be able to detect when a window taskbar button blinks (saying something happened), open that window, then capture (alt-printscreen) and print a picture of that window into a file. Can someone give me some sample code or direct me to documents that would help me do this? I’m working with Java, so java related help would be most appreciated.

Thanks a bunch in advance!
