Cursor Position Finder - For macros

I made this for people coding mouse macros but are unsure what mouse coords to put. This wasn't made in VB, but since most of our coders are too... um... lazy to use real languages I'll post it here in the VB section.

Press Alt+U to update the cursor position.

I'll work on one that lets you target specific windows and get the mouse position of that windows only (like the runescape applet window). For now this is all I have though.

its alot longer in vb6..hmm

use example:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Timer1.Interval = "100"

End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Label1.Caption = (MouseX & " - " & MouseY)
End Sub

Yes it is. Have you even used C++? 2-3 lines max for doing something like this. VB6 needs API calls, types and more rubbish.

void CShowMousePosDlg::OnUpdate() 
{
    char coordtext[20];
    POINT *p = new POINT;
    GetCursorPos(p);
    UpdateData();    
    _itoa(p->x,coordtext,10);
    GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1)->SetWindowText(coordtext);
    _itoa(p->y,coordtext,10);
    GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT2)->SetWindowText(coordtext);
    delete p;
}

That's just 1 function.

But that's beside the point, VB vs. C++ is a debate for another thread. (Which you guys can feel free to create, and I look forward to debating there )

Please only post feedback about the app .
