Hi David,

Use the following:

SET LIBRARY TO FOXTOOLS && You may have to include the path if it's not on it
<PRE>lnwhandle = _WFindTitl(< the form's caption >)
* optionally to get the top form
lnwhandle = _WOnTop()
lnhwnd = _WhTohWnd(lnwhandle)

The first call gets the internal reference that VFP uses (either via _WFindTitl() or _WOnTop()). The second converts it to a window handle.

BTW, I have no idea what's going on with the parser here.
