    copied!<p>I have been trying various code snippets here and there, but still not successful.I am simply trying to find one of the open windows (it is the Browser window) using <code>FindWindow(NULL,WINDOWTITLE)</code>, with a specific Title string. Once I get the handle of the window, I need the coordinates using <code>GetWindowRect</code>.</p> <p>This code gets me the coordinates, but seems like it's in an infinite loop, there are about a 100 lines of output with the coordindates, should be just 1. I don't see any while construct (originally a Java programmer)... wonder why it's repeating...</p> <pre><code>struct WindowInfo { HWND m_hWnd; string m_title; WindowInfo(HWND hwnd, string title) : m_hWnd(hwnd), m_title(title) {} }; BOOL CALLBACK EnumWindowsProc(HWND hwnd,LPARAM lParam) { vector&lt;WindowInfo*&gt; &amp; windows = *(vector&lt;WindowInfo*&gt;*)lParam; char title[256]; HANDLE wndHandle; LPCWSTR WINDOWTITLE = L"eBargain 2 Share - Windpos Internet Explorer"; RECT rRect; LPRECT lpRect; RECT rc; hwnd = FindWindow(NULL,WINDOWTITLE); GetWindowRect(hwnd,&amp;rc); printf("Position: %d x %d\tSize: %d x %d\n",rc.left,rc.top,rc.right- rc.left,rc.bottom-rc.top); /* Enumerating through all the windows tells me that I am on the right track... (Should I just try to find the TITLE STRING by comparing every title from the following enumeration ? */ GetWindowTextA(hwnd, title, 256); windows.push_back(new WindowInfo(hwnd,title)); // printf("%s\n", title); return TRUE; } int main() { vector&lt;WindowInfo*&gt; windows; BOOL ret = EnumWindows(EnumWindowsProc, (LPARAM) &amp;windows); if ( ret ) { //windows have windowinfo of all enumerated windows } } </code></pre>
