Console and handle

[dee-u]

If I need to get an hWnd and I am using a console app, how can I set it?

Start 1 or 2 notepad processes and then try this code

Sub Main()

        Console.Title = "Playing with Handle in Console"
        Dim counter As Integer = 0

        For Each p As Process In Process.GetProcessesByName("notepad")
            counter += 1
            Console.WriteLine(counter & " p window Handle: " &   p.MainWindowHandle.ToString)
        Next

        Console.ReadLine()

    End Sub

Never mind, I'll just integrate a form into my console app and call ShellExecute from there....

Of perhaps better if I'll use the handle returned by GetDesktopWindow api...
