Console tab stops?

Question was fine and worded properly, else he would have asked "How would i get a handle to another process". You made a mistake and you're justifying it by partly blaming for their wording so, no doesnt work like that unfortunately. Nice try though, better luck next time

Uh, nope. Read brew's question, and then hopefully you'll understand iago's thoughts. You don't get a handle to the thread  of another process. The original question just doesn't make sense. You almost had him, though.

The functions you need are something like:
FindWindow() to get a handle to the window
GetWindowThreadProcessId() to get the process id (I am doing the names from memory, so I could be wrong on that)
OpenProcess() to get a handle to the process

Somebody can correct me if I'm mistaken.

IIRC, OpenProcess returns a handle to the process, not the thread. Perhaps you were thinking of OpenThread? (that requires a thread ID, and GetThreadID requires a thread handle, what i wanted in the first place) I've found a good way to do this-- calling CreateToolhelp32Snapshot with flags TH32CS_THREAD (I thought at first i was going to have to use a kernel mode api for this one) then call OpenThread. Thanks anyways.

Ah, the original question was worded funny, "Hey, how would i get a handle to the thread of another process?"

I assumed you wanted to get a handle to the process. What I think you wanted to ask was how to get a handle to a thread in another process.

I know you like iago and all but you can hop off cause he's still not going to give you Windows.Vista.Source.Code-2007-iago. Next.

warz is right. I did word it wrong, I ment to say the threads' IDs of another process.
