>>George may want to download my Extended Foxtools Help File in the UT Download Section under Coding Syntax and Commands. All the Foxtools functions (through version 5.0 of the librarry) and documented and cross-referenced.

>That's a good idea. We have something similar here in Germany, and I usually can figure out from the VFP help file on the VFP API what parameters a function takes, so I forgot tio mention it.

The only problem with the VFP help file is that the names are slightly different. In many instances they're truncated to 10 characters (_WFindTitle becomes _WFindTitl). I don't know why this is, since it isn't a compiler limitation. In the VFP 6.0 version, for example, you have _WSockGetHostByAddr. There are a couple of cases (well, at least one), where the parameter list is different. _GetWRect() is the one that comes immediately to mind.

>>BTW, Christof, just to clarify the remark on the values returned by _WOnTop() and _WFindTitl(), these are not what are commonly referred to as "window handles". FoxPro refers to these as "whandles" (as opposed to "hWnds"). In order to retrieve the Windows window handle, you have to use _WhTohWnd(). I mention this for the benefit of other readers of this thread.

I knew you knew that, that's why the last line.:-)
