Is it possible to obtain a hWnd window handle to a native VFP textbox? (Why? Its a long story for another thread) Anyway, it is my understanding that VFP has its own funky way of dealing with its native controls that prevents VFP's native controls from exposing a true hWnd window handle. I was hoping there might be some 'secret' technique exposed by the Foxtools.fll that might sneak around this limitation?

If I'm correct in my assumption that VFP does not expose a hWnd handle, would there be any problems with me using a 3rd party ActiveX textbox that exposed its own hWnd or will VFP's ActiveX container prevent me from making effective use of an ActiveX's native Windows textbox hWnd?

Any suggestions on a 3rd party textbox that exposes a hWnd property?

Thanks!
