I already know how to get the handle to the foreground window using the GetForegroundWindow() function inside user32.dll, but i also need something that will return a collection of the handles of all the open windows. If there is no function to do this, and you think there could be another way to do this, please let me know.

Hi,
user32.dll also holds EnumChildWindows and EnumWindows for you.

Thanks. I tried that, and for some reason i get 537 handles returned. Obviously, i don't have 537 windows open, so would you (or anyone else) happen to know why it enumerates that many times??? Also, to make myself more clear, i am making a virtual desktop program, so i only want to get the windows that are actually visible (excluding the explorer.exe process).

Every control is it's own window, visible or not. Even controls that you think are a single control, are really a combination of smaller controls working together.

Actually you do have 537 window handles open at one time. To see details on the windows (or for that matter actually believe you have 537 windows open), you can open Spy++ which is an application installed by Visual Studio for debugging aspects of programs and the OS. Spy++, which should be able to be found in the start menu and will list every window/sub-window currently displayed in windows.

I managed to narrow it down to filter out everything but the open windows using the IsWindow() and IsWindowVisible() function inside user32.

Wow - that's a lot of works for a question that makes no sense at all. I *think* you want to draw the boomerang over and over on the red shape. Create a texture brush for this, you can do this from a bitmap and you can specify a transparent color, so you can do an irregular shape.

Hello,
I've been trying to drag & drop an image from a PictureBox to Explorer to create a .bmp file of said image, and I've had no success. I've looked and looked all over the 'Net, found a couple of hopeful looking solutions, but nothing has actually worked.
I've played around with drag & drop, and I can move a picture between two PictureBoxes okay. I was kind of thinking if there was a way to get a string of the path in which I am attempting to drop the image, I could just save it, but I don't know if that's the best way or if it's even possible.
Does anyone know how this could be done?
EDIT: I saw the article here[^], but it's in C#... I only know Visual Basic.
As I sit here, I contemplate the last words of Socrates: "I drank what?".

No, it is in C++.

Try taking Mike's code, convert it to pseudocode, and then take that pseudocode and covert to vb.net. Sounds like a bit of work, but it does work okay for the most part.

I could try that, but I'm not exactly at expert level, and this article wasn't really geared toward PictureBox images... as a matter of fact, I don't think it covers dragging to Explorer to generate files at all.
Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about this specific problem?

You're not going to write a shell extension in VB, you need a real programming language for that (i.e. C++ )

What kind of qualifications do you have for writing such exams? That could be of help in accessing what information you might need.

That's nice and all, but you need more than an academic background. How about REAL industry experience? You cannot really write Microsoft Certification Exams without working with Microsoft. You could try but if you are not a Microsoft partner, I doubt people would want to take your test if it is not certified or okay'ed by Microsoft.

I thnk you mean you want to pass one ? That's easy, the web is full of guides. That's why those exams are worthless.

Not much else to say. I need (well not need, but would like) to know how to set the sound level from a VB.NET application.
