Terry,

>I remember a posting (about four years back) on a Borland news group that was a rant about how MS waved dollars in front of one of Borlands engineers, so he quit (can't blame him) and went to work at MS. At the time, Borlands xBase offering had an hWnd for every control. It would be neat and good for VFP if that was the case with VFP 7.

Although VFP controls will not have hWnd's, they are addressable through the Active Accessibility features added in VFP7, which allow outside programs to run automated testing. Look there if you want some additional ways to address and query or manipulate VFP controls and/or user actions.
