C'mon.

If you've ever been in the army as a mechanic, you must have
been told to get a can of muffler bearings?
or a left handed allan wrench?

Just trying to create a repository of helpful, little used API
functions, for the new VB'ers.

Why, look at FindWindowByDate. Very handy if you need to
return some window properties on a program that ran two days ago.
