 How can I screen capture text from another program

I am writing a VB application to interact with an automated dialer.
The dialer interface uses Dynacomm (a terminal program like Procomm)
to display basic account information to the user.

My VB application must grab the Account Reference Number from Dynacomm
and then use that number to pull up the right account on the SQL server.

Is there a way through DDE or API to capture text from another program?

Thanks in advance for any help
