this link describes the standard clipboard formats: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winui/winui/windowsuserinterface/dataexchange/clipboard/clipboardformats.asp you probably want to use CF_BITMAP instead of CF_TEXT above, if you want to get an image. so just replace CF_TEXT with CF_BITMAP there, and then the text variable will be pointing to the image data. now, if you want to subsequently use that variable to do "InlineShapes.AddPicture" bit, you probably have to save that pic data to a temp file, and then do the addpicture routine with that file, as i think addpicture requires a path to a file as the argument. but a disclaimer: i have not played with any of these fancy clipboard functions myself, so i may be wrong. > How can I get the windows handles to MS-WORD? > > So far I have playing with > wordApp = Dispatch('Word.Application') > wordApp.Documents.Add() > InlineShapes.AddPicture(pic_name) > > which allows me to dump text and pictures from a sim > into word... > Looking for something that will help me dump a > screenshot into word. i do not know if there is a nice and direct way to get a hwnd from an object returned by dispatch. maybe someone else can help out here? if that nice and direct way is not available, then you would have to go through the FindWindowEx and/or EnumWindows api to get at the window handles, and it is somewhat of a pain to do. but the "winguiauto" package should take some of that pain away, if you dont care to work with the details. so basically, i guess now you have two possible pathways to accomplish a solution to your problem. :) -d _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
