The problem with FindWindow is that you have to match the title exactly. Given that most applications have dynamic title bars, it's not likely that it will always work. One note, I haven't tested it under Windows NT, but it still should work. If there are any problems, however, I would appreciate your letting me know.

Thanks for the reply. I have used the FindWindow API function with success. As the window is a fixed application I know that the title will stay the same. So thanks again.
Cheers
