RE: cut and paste entire page in txt file

something like this should get you started

CODE

Sub Main

        Dim Sys As Object, Sess As Object, MyScreen As Object, MyArea As Object
	Set Sys = CreateObject("EXTRA.System")
        ' Assumes an open sessions
	Set Sess = Sys.ActiveSession
	Set MyScreen = Sess.Screen
 
        Set MyArea = MyScreen.Area(1,1,24,80)
        
        MyFile = "C:\mytxt.txt"

        Open MyFile for Append as #1

            Print #1, MyArea
 
        Close #1  
    
End Sub

look in the HELP files for "Open statement:description" for further information

But in case to use the first how to read line by line the txt?

RE: cut and paste entire page in txt file

it can get complicated, depending on how the screens are structured.

when you scrape one entire screen, in this case (1,1,24,80), that means there are 1920 characters in total (80 characters per row * 24 = 1920).

then you can loop through the 1920 characters using the MID function

either way is just as quick. it's a matter of preference.
