Define "first window". There is no such concept in windows. If you do an
EnumWindows you get the windows in the current Z order, not in the order they
were created in.

Hi
When you enumerate the windows...is it possible to tell which one is the
"main window/form" so that you could (for instance) send it a message..?
Just wondering... :o)
