Hi Mike,
I think Tom's explanation does it for me and may help you as well. Thanks for your help.

I do not think that print Mouse.Window will print out the text of the mouse window. The Window object does have a clips method which returns a clips object object which has a clipstext property which holds all the clips text for the Window. I may be missing something but I hope this helps a little. All the best,, Mike. At 12:05 28/12/2012, you wrote: Hi guys and gals? I read with interest that in Immediate Mode, you can for example, print out the mouse window as a variable. I checked the reference guide and Mouse is an object, and Window is a property. So I opened a program, interested in what I would get, Outlook 2007 as my example and loaded my inbox. I then hit the Control-Shift-Q window to bring up Immediate Mode, and typed:- Print mouse.window I get the error:- Error object does not support this property or method. So where am I going wrong? This is not important to any project, it is just experimentation and I want to understand what's happening here. I would have thought the mouse object would hold the window property and give me some result, whether it is numeric or a string, but looks like the window property isn't supported. Interestingly, this example is also referenced in the Immediate Mode help. Any thoughts please? Thanks.
