Hello list,

I'm trying to come up with a script that will take a screenshot of 
internet exploder, (for IE automated unittest script for web 
development) but having trouble drilling fown to the dc of the control.

It looks like I the control that is needed is called "Internet 
Explorer_Server" inside the IE application. How can I get the dc of this 
control?

I tried getting it by using GetDC() on the control, but it doesnt seem 
to work (cause that only works on windows, not on controls).

Any help is greatly appreciated!
