Hi Donald:
You might try using the GetForeGroundWindow function to return the
handle of the main window or dialogue with focus. This function does
not require a starting handle so May work in some instances where the
handle with focus does not link directly to the main window.

Are there any things that can be done to make the percentage of success
greater when obtaining a window handle? It seems that these "Find"
calls
fail based on cursor positions or some other controllable conditions.
Is
there things that might be considered before calling these functions?
Perhaps moving focus to a known location or routing the JAWS cursor to
the
PC cursor? Will these functions fail if the application currently does
not
have any window in focus or the mouse is positioned outside the window?
I
would like to make several applications more reliable.
