    Resolved [RESOLVED] Window handle from title

    Is it possible to get the window handle of a window using just its "title"

    The method has be a universal method which can be used by different languages.

    I was thinking something like a vbscript file which is then executed using system shell the output is sent to a text file in a temp folder. you open the text file and then get the handle then delete the file.

    anything like this possible

    Re: Window handle from title

    Ok got it sorted

    Code:
    Dim DataBin 
    Set obj = CreateObject("APIWrapperCOM.APIWrapper")
    DataBin = obj.FindWindow("'+title+'")
    Dim filesys, filetxt, getname, path
    Set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set filetxt = filesys.CreateTextFile("'+output+'", True)
    filetxt.WriteLine(DataBin)
    filetxt.Close
    title is the name of the window you pass (as a variable)
    output is where the hwnd (or 0 if none found) is written to as a text file
    it requires a few files a to register the dll as well see here:
