in reply to getting text from a window

is there any way to get text

This may be difficult...  Which window/application, which OS? Can you select the text (with the mouse) for cut-n-pasting?  If all you can obtain is an image, you'd have to resort to OCR...

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. the OS is Windows XP . I am able to select the text with the mouse manually and paste it. Actually i captured the window as a screenshot with the help of Imager::screenshot module. Now iam trying to get the text from the screenshot. Thanks and Regards Peter...
