Green Screen Scraping

[Andre Uys]

I need to build a quick temporary solution until our IT group can provide a
better solution.

Running WRQ Reflections for IBM 3270 emulation.

I need to scrape data from one screen that lists a bunch of jobs. Once
scraped, I want to add this to an access table. For each of these
records/jobs, I now want to send some keys back to the emulator in order to
get additional data for each record.

From many threads that I have read, most people do not recommend using
"SendKeys", but I don't have an option at this time, I must do something....

If you know of any better way to achieve this, please advise. If you good
resourced for sendkeys, thanks.
Andre

The usual objection to SendKeys is that it's the programming equivalent to
playing darts with your eyes closed, not that it's sloppy programming.
