I think the softwareok website deserves wider recognition, having looked
at it: there's a lot of small freeware there, much of which runs under
98 (some 95) all the way up to 7.

There's one there -
http://www.softwareok.com/?seite=Mic.../GetWindowText - that I
_think_ (the translation from German is such that I'm not sure) might
help the person who wanted to capture error message text.
