Adding an overlay button to a Poker client interface is not an easy task.
One problem is re-drawing the button whenever the client overwrites it.
Another problem is accessing the info in the client which you want to save.
I posted some sample code in this thread on how to do it with PokerStars.
If you just remove the 'overlayed button' requirement, your class project solution is already posted in that thread with the "NotMyHand" solutiion. Just modifying that solution I posted to do some things your way is basically what you will do when you first get out of school....figure out and modify someone else's bad code.

haha, I already have enough industry experience to know that song by heart.
thanks a bunch. now, if I could only remember all my c# data structures so I can finish my text parsing.
woot.
thanks for the help. wow, python looks easy, may have to give it a shot.
