sounds like it's not getting the info you think it's getting from the window.

ill try a different approch. but i just ran into another problem if you could give me an example using notepad that would be great lol.
im trying to get only part of a windows name and having troubles. been reading in str, val, and ARRAYs. but i cant find anything.
> i want to get just part of window name. example is if window was: "Notepad 1234" i just want to get the #s using getwintext.

thanks Ken your the best! lol always fast to help me out.
