Hello Steve,

My understanding is that
whilst Window is indeed a property of Mouse object,
Mouse.Window will return an object which, in turn, has properties.
I do not think that
print Mouse.Window
will print out the text of the mouse window.

The Window object does have a clips method which returns a clips object object which has a clipstext property which holds all the clips text for the Window.
I may be missing something but I hope this helps a little.

All the best,,

Mike.

Hi guys and gals?

I read with interest that in Immediate Mode, you can for example, print out the mouse window as a variable. I checked the reference guide and Mouse is an object, and Window is a property.

So I opened a program, interested in what I would get, Outlook 2007 as my example and loaded my inbox.

I then hit the Control-Shift-Q window to bring up Immediate Mode, and typed:-

Print mouse.window

I get the error:-

Error object does not support this property or method.

So where am I going wrong?

This is not important to any project, it is just experimentation and I want to understand what's happening here. I would have thought the mouse object would hold the window property and give me some result, whether it is numeric or a string, but looks like the window property isn't supported.

Interestingly, this example is also referenced in the Immediate Mode help.

Any thoughts please?

Thanks.

All the best

Steve
