Assuming you have the top-most window of the app, you should be able to use FindWindowEx to find the tab control by class name; you shouldn't have to enumerate for it. After you send TCM_SETCURSEL, you should be able to call InvalidateRect to force the window to redraw. Do you have the Windows SDK installed? You can use the "spyxx" tool to explore the window configuration of the app you're examining. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
