ok, thanks I got this working now, but I only need text with certain colors 
spoken.  I know how to do this in the frame manager, but can you get this to 
work with the GetTextInFrame Function?
In other words can you only get text with specific attributes?

  hi Gian.

  I can probably speak somewhat into this one, but I just haven't been able to
  make the time to do it properly! never enough time!

  but, in very basic untested form, which I realize is not how you've asked
  for it, wouldn't you just wanna do something like:
  define CrateName as a local or global string variable, let's say local for
  sake of argument near the beginning of your script, after the term
  var
  to denote variable list, (though in all standard protocol you should really
  probably call it,
  var
  string sCrateName

  ; (the preceeding lower case s, indicating that it's a string  variable,
  ; wouldn't you then just do something like:
  let sCrateName = GetTextInFrame ("MyFrameName")
  if StringContains (sCrateName, "TextToWatchFor") then
  ; do whatever you need.
  EndIf

  something like that?

  however what I'm not sure about here is, and what I do keep insisting you
  reeally need to work on getting down too if your gunna work with frames, is
  to insure that their validation criteria is accurate.  i.e. that their
  WindowTitle, or Class parameter, far more often the former than the latter
  is problematic in my experience,
  is not breaking the frame from working.

  gotta run. see how you go with this so far.
