Where did the call come from? 1

[Gazzza]

I have two applications one is a financial app the other is a drawing app both have pretty good OLE librarys. What I can do is open the drawing app from the financial app or I can open the drawing app from the desktop as normal. Is it possible to tell where the call came from either the desktop or the financial app. I only want the drawing app to be opened if it came from the financial app. Is this possible using perhaps a parameter or API call to achieve this. Is this possible?

Thanks
Garry

I'm a bit shaky on hte details, but you should be able to get the handle to the window, and then trace it's "ancenstry" all the way to the O.S. - if the Financila app is not in the list - then it obviously wasn't where the app was called?
