Was it so hard to consult original MSDN documentation?

It's not "to get". This class, as many typical MFC classes, is a mere C++ wrapper around a window object referenced via its HWND.

Please, get a habit to find everything in documentation by yourself. This forum is more for real problems, hard or maybe even very simple, but real.
