I got it! Thanks skip.

Thanks Skip, I can't pull that up in my help at all. Is there an example included? I can set the area using myScreen.area(1,1,1,20) without a problem. What I can't do is use extraarea.left to return a 1.

Hi, thanks. I don't have any code that uses extraarea. From looking at the object-browser, it seems as though the class has the ability to report attributes of a screen selection. Extra help provides nothing on the topic, neither does a google search. In fact the only place I have seen...

The ExtraArea class is visible via the object browser, but I can't seem to set it. Anyone have an example of it in use?

I am trying to access the attachmate whlapi32.dll (running Extra 6.7) from excel. I can access the functions in the api from the extra macro editor without a problem, but i get a file not found (53 not 48) error when trying to access them from VBA. I am declaring as follows: Public Declare...

Is there a way to disable the ablity for Extra! to run macros? Ideally, I would like to prevent users from editing, creating or executing any macros from within the extra environment.

Perfect, thank you!!

Long day at the keyboard.. wasn't paying nearly enough attention. Sorry 'bout that.

From within a extra macro, how can i determine the users default network printer name?

Give it a shot. I compiled and ran that before I posted it, so it will run in extra!6.7 on a win2k platform.

Hey. This is probably not the best solution, but it works for me... Use wscript to place the message.. the user can click okay, but if they don't it goes away after a second anyhow... Global WshShell As Object Sub Main Set WshShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )...
