    FindWindow

    hi guys, i need a proper way to find a window dialog
    I just this code to find a dialog
    Code:
    Dim mydiag as Long
mydiag = Findwindow("#32770","Open")
    However, the "Open" is different from 1 window to another, like english versus french, german...


    And i can't let "Open" = Vbnullstring cuz there are others "#32770" classes open on my desktop

    You would have to use some variable that will be populate upon the app running that can determine the language the app is running on. Then pass it as the caption argument.

    I believe you would have to read the Regional Settings of Windows. Try a search on the forums first.
