    How to capture the contents of the...

    Hi, I need to capture the screen contents of the screen on a remote computer, I have several computers in a LAN but not all have a monitor. I would like to be able to take a screen shot and view it on the computer with the monitor. Is there an API(s) that will let me do this? I looked through a lot of them, But I am a little confused.

    I need to be able to send this over a TCP or UDP connection to the computer with the monitor.

    Than you very much!!!

    If you look in this thread http://161.58.186.97/showthread.php?s=&threadid=89655 you will see how to take a picture of the screen and save it to a file. Then it would be easy to send through the network. The problem is you'll need this prog running on the computer you're trying to take the screenshot of, and a way to control the prog from another one. But if you're working on an LAN I'm sure you know how to deal with that. I'm not a network person . This may help you somehow though.
