Post Message API .......

(1) I have code that during form_Initialize minimizes all applications via this line:

Call PostMessage(lngHwnd, WM_COMMAND, MIN_ALL, 0&)

(I found this code snippet in an older post here at VBWorld)

Next I want just my app to appear in it's normal state. I can get a handle on my app BUT what are the values that I have to pass to PostMessage for this happen?

(2) Can you please tell me of any API value resources, i.e., tables of values, with descriptions?

Thanks a million.

Q1:

I have posted the MinimizeAll/RestoreAll code before and if you've noticed, it does minimize your program as well. You can restore just your program if you want though.

Code:

---

Private Sub RestoreMe(frm As Form)
'Use this after you minimize all to restore only your program
  Dim lngHwnd As Long
  lngHwnd = findwindow(frm.hwnd, vbNullString)
  Call PostMessage(lngHwnd, WM_COMMAND, MIN_ALL_UNDO, 0&)
End Sub
