Screen shot open paint .

[bobheart]

send("{PRINTSCREEN}"),"paint")

I'm trying to take a screen shot and open it in paint but I don't think I'm doing it right as it is not working . lol

What do I have wrong here ?

[CyberSlug]

Send("{PrintScreen}")
Run("mspaint.exe")

Opt("WinWaitDelay", 10);speed things up
WinWait("untitled - Paint")
WinMenuSelectItem("untitled - Paint","", "&Edit", "&Paste")

Or you could replace those last three lines with WinWaitActive(....) and Send("^v")

Thank you for the help . what would this do then ?

WinWaitActive(....) and Send("^v")

^+v is control+v which is paste.
