>>Those functions will not work with VFP native textbox or editbox controls. Because, you will have to obtain the hWnd of the textbox or the editbox which VFP hides.

>VFP doesn't hide them, those controls don't have them because they are not "Windows" controls, they are only bitmapped representations to appear to look like standard Windows controls.
Fred,
Thanks for clarifying that!
Fascinating!!!
Could you explain in more detail how it's done internally?
How are the controls rendered on the form?
Why did VFP Team choose to use windowless controls?
When you say those controls, do you mean TextBox and EditBoxControl or all the visual controls?
And how did you know this?( Special connection with VFPT?:) )
