Windows message boxes (not dialog boxes or dialog boxes that look like message boxes) will copy the title bar, text, and buttons as text. EG

---------------------------
Windows Script Host
---------------------------
Script: C:\Documents and Settings\David Candy\My Documents\FindHotkey.vbs
Line: 12
Char: 1
Error: Invalid procedure call or argument
Code: 800A0005
Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error

---------------------------
OK

Hello.

Does anybody know how to get the text from a windows message into a
forum message without typing it verbatim from the message itself ?

I ask a lot of questions on these forums and it has been very helpful
and i would like to continue to do so. But when you have to post an
error message you get from windows, the only way i know to do it is to
type the message.

I tried pasting the message to the forum in HTML format, but some
people don't use HTML and therefore do not see what i am posting.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony
