Hi!

Is it possible to print a screen progromaticly. I see that you can save it to a .TXT or S type of variable, can you then print it like the DOS 'print screen'?

Thank YOu
 
Read FAQ faq184-4912 . I think it will do what you want

 
Thanks for the reply, I tried it and it works thank you again!
 
Hi,

FAQ FAQ184-4912 is working fine with XP, but not with Windows98, Why?

Regards, Paul
 
Mike, I'm working with XP, but one of my tester is using W98 SE, there is happening nothing!!

regards, Paul

It is most likely due to the fact the the function uses some GDI functions that may not be present on that system. I believe you can download gdi32 from Microsoft.

FAQ184-4912 works great for me, too. EXCEPT that (1) of my XP users is having the same problem described above. No error message, the print screen function just doesn't work for him. Nobody else is having the problem.

I made sure he had the latest gdi32.dll, 12/28/05, v5.1.2600.2818, located in winnt\system32. Not sure what to try next.
