i tried that already, but always got zero as result... vista 64. any ideas?

Code: Select all

Repeat
  If GetCursorPos_(@Mouse.POINT)
    Debug WindowFromPoint_(Mouse)
  EndIf
  Delay(1000)
Until GetKeyState_(#VK_ESCAPE) & $8000

No problem.

WindowFromPoint_() actually takes a point structure as it's parameter rather than a pointer to the structure. That is, it takes a 64-bit argument containing the x and y co-odinates of interest.
