indeed the functions are in the different DLLs - but u don't have to know
which u can just declare it in win32api e.g.

DECLARE integer FindWindow in win32api string,string

will let u get the handle for a window
btw, unlike foxtools.fll when u register an API call with decalre
u can use it like any other command e.g.

nHandle=FindWindow(.Null.,_screen.caption)

anyway the most problems u have with API calls is use of structures
(pointers are easy just add @ before the variable u pass)
but even this can be handles with some tricks <s>
