Find Window By Title Name VB 2008?
Sep 16, 2011
Having an issue with a certain application ever since and update, and now errors out with a unique window title. How can I find if the window title exist in VB.Net 2008?Found this code, but looks like its for 6:
vb.net
Sub Tester()
MsgBox Window_Exists("PowerBuilder Application Execution Error (R0039)")
End Sub
[code]....
Also is there anyway to use a variable in the name title... say just the first 3 words of the title followed by somestring that is the equivalent of *?

Excuse me for posting this, but I have searched both Google along with this forum before asking this question, maybe I'm not using the right keywords but I apologize if it's easy to find.I would like to know how one could close a third-party window (application) if a specified string was found in the window title.

border of that said window so the only place the mouse can't click the titlebar and the minimize,restore, and maximize button. The height of the titlebar depends on what OS the user is using so I'm having trouble because I can't give a definite value for this. How do I detect the height. and also for border i'm not sure if the borders have different widths with different operating systems. I'm using windows XP on classic mode, when I change to the themed mode, the height of the title bar changes so it won't work.

We are opening a Word document from our Visual Basic 2010 application using the Word object. When we run our application under Windows Server 2008 the document name is truncated in the main window title for the document. This is not the case when we run our application under Windows XP. Is there a way to prevent this truncation under Windows Server 2008?Mary Leathem

I'm trying to focus and bring a window with an unknown caption/title to the front. The window is in a clinical application that we use, so I don't think there's any way I can do it inside the framework, as we get this application from a vendor. The window will always start with "Member - ". I have code below that I have used in the past to find a window and focus it when I know exactly what the title is.. but in this case I don't know what the title is. Does anyone know of another API call that I can use to search through all windows and compare their titles as text to see if any of them match the text I'm trying to compare with?

It will write all the titles to listbox1, like this example.I will then try to do many things, like close, minimize, maximize, and restore like this:[code]but how do I do this with the selected index in my listbox. My code must somehow get the processname, or processID from the Window-name.

I have a snippet below how to kill multiple instances of different processes by the name of exe file
For Each processName As String In {"notepad", "word", "excel"}
Dim pProcess() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName(processName)
For Each p As Process In pProcess
p.Kill()
Next
Next
But if user will change the name of exe file it will not work. So the question is how to kill them by window title which contains {"notepad", "word", "excel"}?

Im making an application that is keeping an eye on an external application that does not have an API. I'm interested in getting notified when the external application changes its main window title. My idea is to somehow register a hook that will notify my application.
