Hi Charles,
It seems it's impossible to do what you are trying to without reverting
to p/invoke calls. Also the compatibility between different operating
system versions depends on the functions you are calling; user32, by the
way, is one of the Windows core library that more than others should
maintain retro-compatibility.
So no, there should be no problem in using these functions but, to be
sure, please see MSDN for every function you are trying to use. Btw very
simple functions like FindWindow, EnumWindows and ShowWindow will
certainly have no issues. Keep in mind, however, that this code will of
course not be (completely) portable across different .NET platforms
(Mono, for example).
Hope this helps.

Hi,
For our .NET C# application we need to maximize the window of another
running application, the only way we found to do this was to DLLImport
user32.dll and call some methods on it.
Is this ok to do this? Will this be supported in all OS's (XP, 2000,
Vista, 2003, etc.)
Thanks,
Charles.
