In a DLL written in C#, how can you get the handle of the main window
of the app that called you?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike,

AFAIK, there is no API that will do this for you.

Rather, the easiest way I can think of is to call the static
GetCurrentProcess method on the Process class and then access the
MainWindowHandle property on the Process instance returned.
