Many thanks Rob. That sounds like what I'm after. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob Kennedy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Borland's Delphi Discussion List" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 4:54 PM Subject: Re: Window Handle from DLL Handle?

The DLL does not provide > any handle details. Call EnumWindows. For each window that _might_ be your target window (matching title, class name, etc.), call GetWindowThreadProcessID. That will give you the ID of the process that created the window. If that ID matches the one you get from GetCurrentProcessID, then it's the window created by your own program's copy of the DLL. GetWindowModuleFileName might also help, but I don't know whether "module" just means the EXE, or whether it will get you the DLL. At the root, *all* windows are created by User32.dll. -- Rob _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi
