Get parent window handle

[ssimop]

I am wondering whether there exists a way to find the window which opened current window. Example : Using OE you may open, using Save As, a save as window. Is it possible using the "Save As" window handle to find the OE window handle. I understand one less smart way is to use GetWindowList and obtain through it the OE window handle.

Thanks in advance

If window2 is owned by window1, get owner window handle. It is in window actions dialog in floating toolbar.

int window1=GetWindow(window2 GW_OWNER)

Dear Gintaras,

Let me extend my previous enquiry as it follows :
Suppose that in Outlook Express (Outlook Express Message List -ATL:SysListView32) I select a message and press Save As. The Save as window appears and consequently the message line in ATL:SysListView32 is now dimmed. Is it possible to get the previously focused (now dimmed) item in the parent OE Message list control?

Thanks in advance,

;Acc a=acc("" "LIST" w2 "SysListView32" "" 0x1000) ;;Vista
a.Selection
out a.Name

Dear Gintaras,

Much obliged. My mistake was that I was trying a.Focus(0).
