A few days ago, I posted a message asking how to get an HWND from the PID of a child process. Perhaps if you knew what I had in mind, it might be more clear. I want to write an "iconizer", which will load programs up for PM in iconic format, like the load= option in ms-Windows. I was planning on DosExecPgm ASYNC-ing the task, getting its MSGQ or HWND from the PID, and sending it the WM_ICONIZE (or whatever) message. The problem is, I can't re-write the children processes to "return" their HWNDs, since I want the iconizer to be general purpose. If any of you know of a better way to do this, PLEASE tell me! I won't write the program if I don't have to! Thanks for your help in advance, hdan@sleepy.cc.utexas.edu (really Dan Higdon)

It's not included with the MS-OS/2 distribution, at least not DELL's version of it... I've searched through my docs and found nothing. hdan@sleepy.cc.utexas.edu (really Dan Higdon)
