Thanks Dug for responding.  I do get what you are saying.  I was hoping I could 
maybe find the descendent window by its position in the hierarchy and then grab 
its handle from there.  This may not have been clear from my original request.  
Maybe this is more clear.  Its may be just to cumbersome to be practical as 
well.

What I'm about to say is honestly not meant to sound flippant, but I'm still 
afraid it might:

Most any search tactic will require that you know what you're looking for, so 
I'm having trouble identifying specifically what is troubling you. 
FindDescendantWindow requires a control ID. I find useful and unique control 
IDs rather scarce these days, so I usually use FindWindow instead, as it can 
search by window class name, window name, or both at once. If your application 
sports unique and consistent control Ids, you can use findDescendantWindow to 
good advantage though.

Hi,  I have been trying to figure out how to find a specific descendent window

that you know what you are looking for so this does not work for me.
Can any one point me in the right direction?
Thanks
