thanks skip for your valuble time
for example
STARTED - TIME=18.56.50

I do not understand the problem. You ARE getting only 5 characters.

i need f 'Ended -time' in screen
but it shows the above code f ended-time
could you helpme only 5 characters onlythe time

Please state your issues CLEARLY. Post your ACTUAL CODE.

I STILL do not know what your initial problem is. You have not clearly stated your problem.

skip
instead of search i use find option
i have the below code
Set MyArea = MyScreen.find("f"+ "'" + "STARTED - TIME=" + ""'")


MyScreen.Moveto MyArea.Bottom, MyArea.Left
MyRw = MyScreen.Row
If MyRw <> 1 Then

MyStart = Trim(MyScreen.GetString(MyRw, MyCol, 5))
' MsgBox (MyScreen.GetString(MyRw, 54, 5)
the screen shows the started - time =12.59.55
how do i get 12.59
if i put MyCol it does shows the different position
how do i find col here

 

[SkipVought]

if i put MyCol it does shows the different position

Different could be one column left or right, or it could be in the next county!!!

You MUST realize that we cannot see what is on your screen or what is in your mind.

You MUST convey vital and necessary information CLEARLY, CONCISELY and COMPLETELY.

Try to FOCUS!

your MyCol here

MyStart = Trim(MyScreen.GetString(MyRw, MyCol, 5))

is where you found this STARTED - TIME=" which means MyCol is at the first letter of STARTED.
so counting each column until you reach the "=" sign is 14 characters.
add 15 like this:

MyStart = Trim(MyScreen.GetString(MyRw, MyCol + 15, 5))

should give you what you want.
use this to see if that is correct. adjust to suit

msgbox MyStart
