Errr.... GetActiveWindow

[Cease]

Okay this may seem normal to other people but from the sound of it the GetActiveWindow api sounds as if it would return the hWnd os the active window??? Well it doesnt seem to work, so does anyone know how to get the hWnd of the active one???
Thanx

Declare Function GetActiveWindow Lib "user32" () As Long

Sub Main()
  Dim lng_Return as Long
  lng_Return = GetActiveWindow()
End Sub

Yer thanx for the example, it woz slightly different to how i did it in my project, but that doesnt work either, that returns the hWnd if the form it is triggered from is active, but if you have sya IE active it returns 0??? Any further help would be great!
Thanx
