Screen Scrape on a Windows App?

[Trancedified]

Is it possible to retrieve information in an open desktop application (non vb.net) and browse through the screen to "copy" for example a telephone number? This application doesn't have a copy/paste feature or else I would have used this approach.

I heard of Screen Scraping but that's for websites only.... or is it usable in desktop app's?

Any code samples?


Thanks in advance!
