Equivalent to CONTROL HANDLE for DDT Dialog?

[Knuth Konrad]

Hi everybody,

is there an equivalant to the CONTROL HANDLE statement to obtain the window handle of a DDT dialog? Or how do I get the window handle?

TIA, Knuth

Knuth --
In DIALOG NEW hParent&, title$, [x&], [y&], xx&, yy& [, style& [, exstyle&]] TO hDlg&
hDlg& is a window handle
For example, you can use SetWindowText hDlg&, "Text" to change caption

Semen,

that was my first guess, but a 3rd party GPFed when I passed that handle to that tool. The handle received from CreateWindow on the other hand, worked as expected. I'll try that again...

Anyway - thanks a lot, Semen.

P.S. Dave, Lance, you might want to make that clearer in the documentation of PB/DLL.

P.P.S The above mentioned 3rd party tool is the Virtual Print Engine http://www.idealsoftware.de/EV_MAIN.HTM .
I'm about to translate the C-Header and demo program to PB.

Knuth,

That is the correct value. My guess is that you translated the function call declaration wrong.

Dave,

My guess is that you translated the function call declaration wrong.

I doubt that. As I explained (at least I tried to<g&gt : After the tool GPFed when I passed the the DDT dialog handle to the DLL, I created a window using CreateWindow() instead and passed that window handle to the DLL and it worked. So my guess is that I did something else wrong. I need to check that again.

Thanks for your assitance.
