Usually names are colored so using PixelSearch might be useful. Find out the color and with PixelSearch you can have the script show you name's coords.

$coords = PixelSearch( 0, 0, 20, 300, 0x0000FF )
If Not @error Then
    MsgBox(0, "Pixel's coords are X,Y:", $coords[0] & "," & $coords[1])
EndIf

so how you make it a "text" ?

the name of char in online game didn't stand as text, if you want to get it, you have works with the game's memory process (i don't know about this, just read someone's post)

d4rk rights,

you can't get text words in a process with PixelSearch()...

You may wanna use Nomad's Memory UDF..: (For your question you'll need to use the _MemoryRead() function)

He said he wanted position of the name..

And position of his name can be obtained with PixelSearch.
