How to read the color of pixels on the desktop?

Hi All!
how is it possible to read the color of certain pixels on the screen? This is not withing any GUI or graphical java application. That is, the java program is supposed to be invisible to the user, run in the background and have access to the color information on the desktop. I have no idea if this possible at all and don't know how to search for it. With which functions/APIs is it possible?
Would be very thankful for any hints!!
Alex.

Thanks a lot! this is exactly what I was looking for. Moreover, this class has other good things like how to control mouse, which I was also looking for.
So, you answered two my questions : )
Many thanks agian!!

How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? With the new iOs7 Music App there is no more black box showing the entire name!

How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? The old software-app had the function to click for a longer time on a titles beginning letters until a black box revealed the entire name. I miss this function especially for my classical music, because lots of pieces start with similar words. E.g.:
"Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 1"
"Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 2"
Scrolling in a list of title, I can't distinguish the titles, because just the first words are shown followed by: "...".
That's horrible!

Or you could include a width to your body style:
body {
background-image: url(Logo/sky1.jpg);
background-position: center center;
background-attachment: fixed;
width: 75%;}
It might work or not depending on your other color scheme.

How to read the data in excel sheet

Dear sir,
How to read the data in excel sheet when i recieve a data serial communication... ie i have store a data in excel such that
Cell A Cell B
A Apple
B Ball
C Cat
D Doll
when i recieve A from serial communication i have to display Apple, and when i recieve B i have to display Ball and so on..

Hi,
I would recommend you to have a look at the VI attached. It makes use of a VI named 'Read from Spreadsheet' to read the row and column data from the tab delimited excel file. The read data is then searched for the Alphabet specified and finally returns you the corresponding string. The test file used to validate the operation of the VI is also attached.
Trust this would help you solve the issue.

Have this code in your user command fm:

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR'
    IMPORTING
      e_grid = w_grid.
CALL METHOD w_grid->check_changed_data
    IMPORTING
      e_valid = w_valid.
IF w_valid = 'X'.
loop at itab where mark = 'X'.
endloop.
ENDIF.

How to read the Variance Analysis report S_ALR_87013139, Pdt cost by Order

Hi,
Could someone tell me how to read the variance analysis report, S_ALR_87013139 - Cumulative for product cost by order. The report has the following fields, Target (Debits),     Actual (Debits),     Scrap,     Var. Without Scrap,     Work in Process(WIP),     Control Costs.
I am looking to find how the numbers add up.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks Sridhar,
When I analyse the report S_ALR_87013139 - Cumulative , for a product for a period (with no scrap), I get the following
Target (Deb) -   46,855.55
Act (Deb) - 58,315.87
Scrap - 0.00
Var W/O- Scrap - 11,269
WIP- 0
Control Cost - 0
Here Actual - Target is not equal to Variance. What could be the issue?
Could you please tell me how SAP would update this report with target & actual costs with respect to open production orders, carried over from previous periods.
Thanks,
Ram

Help me...How to read the content if "Transfer-Encoding:chunked" is used?

I am doing a project for internet control using Java,PHP and MySql.All sites should go through the proxy server only.If the HTTP header contains Content-Length,am getting the content length as below:
public class HTTPResponseReader extends HTTPMessageReader
    String statusCode;
    public HTTPResponseReader(InputStream istream) throws IOException,                     NoSuchElementException
BufferedInputStream distream = new BufferedInputStream(istream);
retrieveHeader(distream);
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(new String(HTTPMessageReader.toArray(header)));
versionProtocol = st.nextToken();
statusCode = st.nextToken();
String s;
while (st.hasMoreTokens())
        s = st.nextToken();
        if (s.equals("Transfer-Encoding:"))
       transferEncoding = new String(st.nextToken());
     if (s.equals("Content-Length:"))
       contentLength = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
     if (s.equals("Connection:"))
      connection = new String(st.nextToken());
      if (connection.equals("keep-alive")) mustCloseConnection = false;
   retrieveBody(distream);
}After getting the Content-Length,i used read method to read the content upto that content length.Then i concatenated the HTTP header and body and the requested site was opened.But some sites dont have Content-Length.Instead of that,Transfer-Encoding is used.I got the HTTP Response header as "Transfer-Encoding:chunked" for some sites.If this encoding is used how to get the length of the message body and how to read the content.
Can anybody help me.
Thanks in advance...

Why don't you use HttpUrlConnection class to retrieve data from HTTP server? This class already supports chunked encoding...
If you want to do anything by yourself then you need to read HTTP RFC and find all required information. Well in two words you may reject advanced encoding by specifying HTTP 1.0 in your request or download chunked answer manually. Read RFC anyway :)

package java.io
InputStream.read(): int
Reads the next byte of data from the input stream.

An InputStreamReader is a bridge from byte streams to character streams: It reads bytes and decodes them into characters using a specified charset. The charset that it uses may be specified by name or may be given explicitly, or the platform's default charset may be accepted.

How to Read the "text file and csv file" through powershell Scripts

Hi All
i need to add a multiple users in a particular Group through powershell Script how to read the text and CSV files in powershell
am completly new to Powershell scripts any one pls respond ASAP.with step by step process pls
Regards:
Rajeshreddy.k

Hi Rajeshreddy.k,
To add multiple users to one group, I wouldn't use a .csv file since the only value you need from a list is the users to be added.
To start create a list of users that should be added to the group, import this list in a variable called $users, the group distinguishedName in a variable called $Group and simply call the ActiveDirectory cmdlet Add-GroupMember.
$Users = Get-Content -Path 'C:\ListOfUsernames.txt'
$Group = 'CN=MyGroup,OU=MyOrg,DC=domain,DC=lcl'
Add-ADGroupMember -Identity $Group -Members $Users
