SendMessage

[felix1432]

Just read thru the SendMessage function entry:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644950%28VS.85%29.aspx

Sweet & exactly what i need, but where can i find a list of all possible messages i can send (second parameter) ?

thanks,

Any value from 0 to UINT_MAX is allowed (that's over 4 billion message types). What are you trying to do?

You can click your way into more details from that link you provided.

I don't know if there is a complete (and practical) list but you get a lot of them in some kind of list by searching MSDN for WM_ T

You can also open winuser.h and browse thru it.

Edit: The most practical way is to get a book. Without having some background on how Windows is organized it's hard to know what message to search for.
