noviceuser Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Hi, I have a problem selecting text from a website. The page I wish to extract the information from contains more characters than will fit in the WindowInfo screen. I have attempted to emulate mouse movement to highlight and select the text but run into problems when the mouse has to scroll down below the bottom of the page visible on the monitor. Has anyone any suggestions?
