APIs Used For Fixed Single With Minimize Button

**abazabam** · Jan 26th, 2008, 11:55 PM

Can someone please tell me what APIs and arguements are used to create a Fixed Single style window with a minimize button? I need an example using SetWindowLong. Thank you

Just set the BorderStyle to Fixed Single and the MinButton property to True

I know but I need to change the window style while the program is running so I need to use SetWindowLong

No you can still set the properties at runtime.

This doesn't work:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Me.BorderStyle = 1
Me.MinButton = True
End Sub

It should here is an example for changing the forms borderstyle to None

Code:

Form1.BorderStyle = 0
Form1.Caption = Form1.Caption

If you really must use API then have a look at the following thread...
