I'm hoping to be able use macro scheduler to "see/read" a set of numbers on the computer screen ( generated from software program) post them to a file .

Please note that the answer would have to be one that involes Image Recognition as other methods will not work.

(the numbers change every 1 min )

Can this be done? And if so what would be the most efficent way to do this?

OCR is the first thing that springs to mind:

Guess it depends what format these numbers are in. What font etc. If a standard screen font then the above would work.

I've had i chance to check it out and it's just what I need.

I highly recommend this program (kleptomania) to others seeking similar a solution.

Once again, thanks.
