Do you got an example, why not write it directly into the file?

#include <Misc.au3>
#include <File.au3>

MouseClick("left", 50, 315, 1, 1)
        Send("{CTRLDOWN}")
        Send("{A DOWN}")
        Sleep(10)
        Send("{CTRLUP}")
        Send("{A UP}")
        Sleep(10)
        Send("{CTRLDOWN}")
        Send("{C DOWN}")
        Sleep(10)
        Send("{CTRLUP}")
        Send("{C UP}")
        Sleep(10)
        
        $buffer = clipget()

        _FileCreate ( "temp.log" )
        $file = FileOpen("temp.log", 2)
            If $file = -1 Then
                MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to create|open file.")
                Exit
            EndIf
        FileWrite($file, $buffer)
        FileClose($file)
        
        Exit

and it works great until the temp.log < 7Kb

than this copy/paste doesn't work correctly... cut part of the text

You can do FileRead to access the data in the file

hi, thnx for reply

but i do not need to read from file, as u see what i just tryin' to do, is to make ctrl+a&&ctrl+c at textarea and than move it into the file

and i'm doin' this great... but text in the textarea incrementin' and it becomes more and more text there...

so when i grab it after some time, and symbol size become more than 7Kb ... it cut the last lines... so i put at my file via clip incorrect information.

that's why i'm interestin' what it could be? 7Kb retreive clip of the windows? as i knew it depends on your ram memory... memory leap i couldn't have here too, 'caz i don't have huge operations...

i just losin' myself

p.s. sorry for engl... tired a lil bit

also as i knew we donna need to clear the clipboard... it seems to overwrite itself each time i call it

am i right?

oooh, have someting, it works till 500 lines in it... and maximum size right now 15Kb not more not less

am i completely stupid?

You can also do other commands that will get around the size issue with the clipboard. In fact, you could do this with not using the clipboard at all. Look at the string commands and filewrite to do what you need.
