Hi Everyone,

Can you tell me what code to use to see the names of all currently open windows in my app?

Thanks.

Hi Emad,

If you click on Window in the menu, you will see the name of the Window in focus on all the threads opened by your application. The best way to keep track of open windows is to maintain a Global Queue with the threads/windows open. There are Windows API's to find out open windows/application but I am not sure if it will help you with the threads of your application.

Hi ShankarJ,

Thanks for the reply.

When I ran the application, I looked at the Window on the menu I found the window name. I tried to use this name in a WindowsExists statement but it returned 0. Can you tell me what I did wrong?

I will look at the help on queues since I am not familiar with them.

Thanks again.
Truly,
Emad

Hi ShankarJ,

I am using you queue method to maintain a list of the windows.

Thanks.

I installed the abc free templates and looked around the web site but could not find the documentation. Do you have the documentation or know where I can download it?

From the descriptions it has a lot of stuff that I would like to try.

Hi Emad,

I Do not use ABC Free extensively but I do not think there is documentation. The best way to understand it is by studying the Templates and Classes.
