How Do I move a window if the window....

[Daniel_Christie]

How Do I allow a user to move a window if the window does not have a title bar?

I plan to make a program that starts as a small floatable button which the user can covieniently move around their screen into a desired position. When the button is DblClicked my program will Show it's second page that conatains the grit and grunt functions.

If it helps, I'd say that I am looking for the coding simular to what the ICQ's "float Name" option does. Can anyone help me out?

I appreciate any time and effort,
Daniel Christie

you have to use the SendMessage and Release Capture functions in the API. create a label or form or some control with the mousedown proceedure. in the control_MouseDown sub call the function you have made using the two API functions i listed above. if you would like the code i use to create my own titlebars, e-mail at [email protected]. it's very simple.
