What is interesting the parameter type passed to sprintf has to be %s "string" - not %c.

Any constructive help would be appreciated,

char buf[256];

GetWindowText(Wnd, &buf[0], sizeof(buf));
while (Wnd != 0 && !stricmp(&buf[0], "FileZilla") && !stricmp(&buf[0], "NotePad"))
{
   Wnd = GetNextWindow(Wnd, GW_HWNDNEXT); // Next window
   GetWindowText(Wnd, &buf[0], sizeof(buf)); // Get it's title
}
if (Wnd == 0) {
   /* Error neither window found */

   /* Wnd is the topmost of 2 windows title and the string title is in buf */
