HLLAPI=Screen Scraping
Vendors such as WallData produce .DLL files which have HLLAPI calls. These calls are used to connect through RUMBA sessions.
They can be used to extract text, send text, etc. to any RUMBA session.
The problem I'm having is actually on the Windows side. I'm using the GetWindowWord function to try and retrieve a Window Instance. Do you have any experience with this call.....
