Hi Vlad,

I think you misunderstood me. In fact, I think I've posted the same information in the past. I've never had trouble getting a snapshot into the clipboard, it was sending the keystrokes to another window, which, as you've seen, I figured out with your help.

Yeah, the docs are wrong (at least the 1997 docs, haven't checked the 1998 ones, though), and I've know this too. 0 gets the active window and 1 takes full screen.

Kind Regards,
