hey, I'm going to be working with a program called CRT, it uses VBA to do
some scripting.

I'm a .NET developer, namely C#, but I want to learn VBA to see if I can
make a program for someone.

what this program needs to do is highlight a certain field of data in this
application, copy it, open notepad, and paste it there. is this possible on
the realm of VBA ? can VBA open a different app and paste it?



can someone point me in the right direction here?

thanks

Wrong group, this is the VB.NET group...

VBA is a scripting language and what it can do depends on what CRT exposes.
Check the CRT documentation to see if it has the ability to highlight
fields. As for copy and paste and open up another app, that could be done
through sendkeys which is a standard feature of VBScript (and probably
VBA).
 
OK I'll post in a regular VB newsgroup. thanks alot. you've already uncovered
a great deal for me.

VBA is a scripting language ;-) You might have better luck in the VBScript
or even MSAccess/Excel groups. VBA is heavily used in those applications.
