Events: Monitor Window Class

[John Thompson]

PROGRAMA is a .NET program that I don't have the source code to and can't change.

PROGRAMB is my PB program. It can find one of PROGRAMA's windows and simulate keyboard entries to populate it. I know--it's not the best method, but it's all I need.

What I would like to do is have PROGRAMB run constantly and monitor PROGRAMA to see when a specific window is shown at which time I want my program to populate it automatically.

I could constantly check FINDWINDOW or hook SHOWWINDOW, but is there anything better I'm missing? Something that could cause an event or anything else?

Thanks!

Decompile and adapt?

Not with a noncooperating application.
