Window Handle

Was searching knowledge base for a method to get a window handle in labview. The only links I found referred to a set of downloadable functions for NI, doc ID#4935 which was dead.
Is there any existing method to get a window handle?
Thanks

Do a search in the forum with window handle. you can get a couple of solutions.

If still in trouble, post exactly what is your need.

Hi TryingOut,

you can use the functions from the User32.dll, for example these: "FindWindow", "GetForegroundWindow" and "GetDesktopWindow".

Hope it helps.
Mike

Thanks very much for the responses, these will do the trick.  It gets a bit discouraging for a first timer to try to navigate with the broken links in some of the other threads.
