Hi Christof
Many, many thanks for your reply. It looks like just what I need and I will
try it out later today.
In the meantime I have come up with a different approach for the time being.
I have created a form with an RTF OLE control and an edit box. I run the
form using CTRL+F10. In my editing window I use CTRL+A, CTRL+C. Pressing
CTRL+F10 brings up my form and in the RTL OLE control I press CTRL+V.
In the Change method/event of the RTF control I set the value of the edit
box to the TextRTF property of the control.
BTW - ISX - Is that InstallShield Express?
Thanks again
Paul

Subject: Re: Copy contents of code/editor window with formatting
Hi Paul,
> 1. I want it to work with the current/open editing window
in ISX I use the following code:
*-----------------------------------------------------------------
* Get the current window and verify that it is a valid window.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------
Local lnWHandle
lnWHandle = GetCurrentWindow()
If lnWHandle == 0
If not Empty(m.tcInvocation)
Clear TypeAhead
Keyboard "{Mouse}{Mouse}"+m.tcInvocation Plain
Endif
Return
Endif
*-----------------------------------------------------------------
* Verify that the current window is indeed an edit window.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------
Local lnEditSource
lnEditSource = GetEditSource(m.lnWHandle)
If not InList( m.lnEditSource, 1, 8, 10, 12 )
If not Empty(m.tcInvocation)
Clear TypeAhead
Keyboard "{Mouse}{Mouse}"+m.tcInvocation Plain
Endif
Return
EndIf
*====================================================================
* Determines the source of the window identified by the passed
* WHandle. It returns the following values:
*
* -1 The window is not an edit window
* 0 Command Window
* 1 MODIFY COMMAND window
* 2 MODIFY FILE window
* 8 Menu Designer code window
* 10 Method Edit Window in Class or Form Designer
* 12 MODIFY PROCEDURE window
*
* This procedure uses _EdGetEnv() from the FoxTools.Fll to determine
* the edit source. Passing an invalid handle causes an exception in
* VFP 5 and VFP 3. In VFP 6 this raises an error 2028 (API function
* caused an exception). Therefore we return -1 in this case, too.
*====================================================================
Procedure GetEditSource
LParameter tnWHandle
Local laEnv[25], lnSource, lnOK, lcError
lcError = On( "Error" )
On Error lnOK = 0
lnOK = _EdGetEnv( m.tnWHandle, @laEnv )
On Error &lcError
If m.lnOK == 0
lnSource = -1
Else
lnSource = laEnv[25]
Endif
Return m.lnSource
*====================================================================
* Returns the WHandle of the current edit window or 0, if no edit
* window is available.
*====================================================================
Procedure GetCurrentWindow
Local lnWindowOnTop
lnWindowOnTop = _WOnTop()
If m.lnWindowOnTop <= 0
Return 0
Endif
If GetEditSource( m.lnWindowOnTop ) == -1
lnWindowOnTop = 0
Endif
Return m.lnWindowOnTop
