Thank you, it works !

So I created this code, and expected the calculator window to move to the back, but it didn't.
What am I doing wrong here?

hwnd=0
While hwnd=0
hWnd = FindWindow_(#Null, @"Calculator")
Wend
SetWindowPos_(hWnd, #HWND_BOTTOM,0,0,0,0,#SWP_NOMOVE|#SWP_NOSIZE)

SetActiveWindow(#Window)

you can make a window active and get it on top of other windows.
Now I'd like to figure out what the layers are. (Which windows is on top and at the back and manage it.)

For a program I'm writing I need to know which one is the least on top. Or set the ...

Is there a way to cycle through all windows?

Which registrykey contains the ostype?

I'm trying to get my hands on the coordinates of another programs window.
My code sofar does detect the window, but i can't get any coordinates from where it is displayed.
Yes, I use the droopy lib!

I managed to code this, using this code:

NbFiles=SearchFilesInit("H:\My Documents\","*.stv",0)

Repeat
File$=SearchFilesGet()
If File$="" : Break : EndIf
datum$ = FormatDate("%yyyy%mm%dd%hh%ii%ss", GetFileDate(File$, #PB_Date_Modified))

datumlast$ = datum ...

Hi,

I'm trying to code the following:

Search a directory for files with a specific fileextension and get the newest file according to windows timestamp.
I need to get it based on time instead of date, but can't find any commands for it in Purebasic.

But it does give me a brainwave getting the stringcheck not to be checked at first 14 lines...

Hello,

I'm trying to read a stringvalue from a file.

The string is always located at line 15 of the file, but lines are not always of the same length, so I can't use seek.
