Hi All,
A simple way to put the results of a script search into the message box
After your research is done, type this in messagebox:

put the text of mousecontrol()

place cursor over fld "search result", type return with keyboard

Best regards
Jean-Marc

Clever JM, works well

Yo, "the mousexxx" is a very helpful thing in LC, I use it regularly in my custom palette "2lz2".
See screenshot of the appropriate popup menu.

I added a 2 seconds delay in the scripts so you have time to place the cursor over the object of your desire.

Yup, I learned most of the mousexxx things I know from playing with your pallette in Mc

Guilty, although I came across it somewhere other than your site as well. Just can't remember where
