How can I maximize a window using APIs? I was able to find the handle of the window, but I couldn't figure out what to do about the PostMessage API call. Thanks!

Here you go...

Use the API ShowWindow cmd, to maximize or minimize a form

'Your API:

Public Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "user32" Alias "ShowWindow" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nCmdShow As Long) As Long

'Your Constants:

Public Const SW_MAXIMIZE = 3
Public Const SW_MINIMIZE = 6

'here is the possible proc

public max_me()
showwindow(formhwn&,SW_MAXIMIZE)
end sub

Maybe that will help you...
Hopefully that is of help :)
