I would like to know if there is a possibility on having a VB script written in Personal Communications to search or get a required text in the screen?
Or, how can I get the pointer/cursor to point to the particular wording?
Similar to the Excel Find Function using Ctrl + F?
In Personal Communications, there are no Ctrl + F or any functions of Find that I can find in the Edit Menu or other menus, which is why I hope there is a script that can help do the search.
That Find '****' i believe only applies when you have a Command Line in place. But to do a screen search, it doesnt work.
Im not too sure on what you meant by print screen which will create a word file with text. What kind of printscreen I can use that will allow me to Paste to Text?

If you are using IBM PC Under file>printsetup choose Send to Note if you have other default printer
Then do print screen it will transfer screen to word doc keeping alignment same.
There you can do ctrl+F or macro
Don't know about vbscript but you can do it by running Rexx on your PC and EHLLAPI which is built in to Personal Communications. Its considered an old technology but it works very well and it is easy once you do it once or twice.
What I need to do is, when I use PCOMM to connect to, for example, the system such as IM12.
I want to write a VB script that will do;
IF (Find this screen contain text=IBM) then
point cursor there and then do a [tab] then fill 'Y'
else,
jump to next screen [pf8] and find again until no more new forward page.
end if
Well, that's what I want to do so that I can come out with a script that will help reduce the manual eye ball-ing functions.
I am alright with anyway of getting the cursor, I just need to know how to point it there and am going to try with the printscreen send to word if it works.
