Go to In the left hand pane, enter your username/password and click the <Enter messages area> button. This will take you into the messages area of your default forum.
At the top left of the forum window, you'll see a url labeled <Forum main page>, click it. It'll open the forum main page in a seperate window.
In the right hand pane of the newly opened window, find <Windows API functions> and click it.
It's kinda kwirky the way they do it over there. And unfortunately, you cant view the articles unless you are a registered user and logged in. Jon Hawkins

Sorry Jon but "Quirky" isn`t a term I would use to describe the access system, I have been impressed with the Forum, up to now and I am grateful for the help I have received but I am getting a bit frustrated with this confusing form clicking nonesense.
Would you be kind enough to print the details of SendMessage as a reply in this thread so I can solve the problem in hand.
The API details should prove to be a useful resource once I am able to gain access.
Apologies if I have offended anyone but why make access so complicated or is there a fault on the system?

Hello, Webpager
If you are able to enter on the site (that's it, the username and password are accepted and you are able to see the messages) then, after the login, click on the "Forum main page" link on the top of the screen. The go to the API section.
Now: if you receive "username not found" message, anywhere, and you use Netscape, switch to Internet Explorer. It will work. It seems that the site has a problem with Netscape (I am constantly unable to login using Netscape).
Hope this helps.
PS. If you are unable to gain access there, I can mail to you all the pages "Win32API" from UT. The zip file have 4,5 MB in .mht format. Just drop a note on my e-mail address: gdolghin@yahoo.com

WP,
FWIW, I was in no way attempting to criticize the UT. IMO, it has the most premier VFP forum available on the Net.
What I meant by "kwirky the way they do it over there" was the fact that they require users to first register before being able to explore the site, unlike Tek-Tips.
Here are the details you requested(irrelevant info trimmed):
Description: Sends a message to a window using its window handle. Use FindWindow to get a handle for a window. This is a synchronous call. To send a message and return immediately, use SendNotifyMessage or PostMessage
PostMessage() simply places the message in the queue for the hWnd and returns immediately, SendNotifyMessage() differs from this in a semisubtle fashion; if the hWnd referenced by the message is owned by the current thread, SendNotifyMessage() does not return immediately, instead, it waits on the message to be removed from the queue before returning from the saendNotifyMessage() API call. PostMessage() does not wait on the message to be processed regardless of who owns the window referenced by hWnd.
Thanks to Ed Rauh for additional notes.
Host file: User32.dll
Declare in Visual FoxPro:
DECLARE INTEGER SendMessage IN WIN32API ;
INTEGER hWnd, ;
INTEGER Msg, ;
INTEGER wParameter, ;
INTEGER lParameter
Example in Visual FoxPro:
* Close the MSDN Library window
#DEFINE WM_CLOSE 0x10
DECLARE INTEGER FindWindow IN Win32API STRING, STRING
hWnd = FindWindow(0,"MSDN Library - January 2000"
=SendMessage(hWnd, WM_CLOSE, 0, 0)
