Looking for a clue in on the .Net functionality to manage windows
outside the application, i.e. other applications. Just looking to find
the window handle by title and adjust its properties such as top,
left, etc.

Much like here, but using Win32 API

Thanks!

You still have to call the user32 APIs.

Ah thank you Mattias, I saw that after doing more research on it. Now
if I can just figure out the whole AddressOf, Callback deal I'll be in
business.

Thanks,

Steve
