Hi Jacques,


That sounded like a good guess so i tried it but it doesnt seem to
work either   Of course first i enum child windows of the hCBox
and that gives me two to work from, but neither provides any new
hWnd's on enumerating their 'childs' (if any).
I've already proved that this hWnd does in fact exist and that it
gets an 'internal' id assigned by Windows.
ChildWindowFromPoint doesnt work either, unless you're only after
the edit control hWnd.


Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
