| | | WinHandler lets you manipulate the existing windows on your system. You can resize, move, change style and text, kill, copy, paste, undo etc. All by using Win32 API calls.
It is a good demonstration (in my opinion) of Enumeration functions, SendMessage() and SetWindowPos()

Jeff, you can use the GetWindowText API
call to get the text in a window (in a
text box too).

Hey, this is semi-relevant. If anyone
knows, although this is directed to
Kimon, please email me at
The_Only_One_Left@hotmail.com. Anyway
here's my question. For example,
different instances of the Instant
Message box in AIM have the same class
name but different handles. However,
they are all the same level, as in, not
child or parent to each other. Is there
a way to cycle through all the
different IMs and retrieve information
from each? Thanks.

Jared:
If you check the source code,
in the function "EnumWindowProc" in the
module
"basMain" I use the function
"GetClassName" which returns a string.
You can
use this function in your own
"EnumWindowProc" and disregard all
windows
whose class name is not the
one you're looking for.

I know that the MSDN docs say that you
can't change window styles after the
window has been created. I want to
change a style on-the-fly. Can it be
done? Specifically I want to inhibit
the resizing of a window in a foreign
application.

Thank you very much for the code!
You've done an excellent job. I have a
very strong need, though, that I was
hoping you could help me with. I need
to be able to release as many Windows
Resources as possible. Do you know of
any code that would work in WIN95,
WIN98, and WIN2000? Your help would be
very much appreciated.
Also, exactly
what does your REFRESH WINDOWS command
do?
Thanks again for your work.

Hey your code is wonderful, I gave it
an excellent. But I have a question,
when I run notepad with your program
and then i select notepad and settext
in the notepad using child window it
works fine, but how can I paste the
text continuing from the cursor,
suppose I write hello, in notepad and
then switch to your code and type "how
are you" in the text box of child
window and after that the notepad
displays me hello, how are you (i.e it
pastes the how are you after hello,
Please let me know this, I'm very
depressed over this one.

Jeff, If you want to set the text for a
entrybox you need three things. You
need the API, the constant and a window
handle for a textbox.
Private
Declare Function SendMessageByString
Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA"
(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As
Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal
lParam As String) As Long
Private
Const WM_SETTEXT = &HC
Sub
Main()
call
SendMessageByString(frmMain.Text1.hWnd,
WM_SETTEXT, 0&, "Hello")
End Sub
