[QUOTE="J. Scott Elblein, post: 185998, member: 10914"] What is the usual method to attach a vb form to the window of another process? For example, the program "Listary" attaches a "toolbar" (probably just a small form) to OpenFileDialogs, and moves along with it if the OFD is moved: [ATTACH type="full"]4666[/ATTACH] I'm hoping to save a lot of time and find a pre-made example since it seems like this would hardly be the first time it's ever been done. Is it some combo of setting a timer to constantly check the position of the other window via winAPI, read it's coords, and set my own form's coords? Or perhaps a SetParent API call, or something?
