GetHandle

intiHandle = window.GetHandle();

Applicable Classes: MainWin

Parameters: None
Return Value:
int iHandle - the handle (HWND) of the window as an integer.

Description:
Returns the handle (HWND) parameter of the window as an integer.  This value can then be passed to a DLL Function. The result can also be passed to the SetHandle function for a window. By using this, the window can be used even if the title (and therefore tag) changes midway through the run.

Example Code

use "Notepad.dec";
System("c:\\windows\\system32\\Notepad.exe");
int i = Notepad.GetHandle();
# -or-
# int i = MainWin("Notepad*", "Notepad").GetHandle();

window w;
w.SetHandle(i);
w.SetText("Some Other Title");
w.Maximize();
w.Restore();
w.Close();
