Get Window Size
Author
Hey everyone. I'm looking to find a way to get the current size/position and other attributes of a window (using Win32+MSVC++6). I know that you can set/get the text of a control with SendMessage(hwnd, WM_GET/SETTEXT...etc), but I've been looking through MSDN and can't find anything like a "WM_GETSIZE" or "WM_GETPOSITION". Is there something like this that im just missing, or is there a whole other way to get size/position information? Thanks.

BOOL GetWindowRect( HWND hWnd, // handle of window LPRECT lpRect // address of structure for window coordinates); Implementation:
RECT windowRect
GetWindowRect(hwnd, &windowRect);
//To access members
windowRect.left
windowRect.right
windowRect.top
windowRect.bottom
