Hi

I have to write a program that can change another applications (already compiled and not mine) window size. (We bought stuff with the understanding that it does have a SDK with it.... surprice no SDK supplied, just a few .exe files)

I would like to do this in matlab or c++ builder. I have no idea where to start looking because a search on " windows size change application" doesn't give me the results I'm look for.

Anyway I did a search here and find that I can "transfer data" (IPC) between different programs but I assume both programs are still @ compile time... and that both program expect a data transfer.

I know from DOS days that you can control the mouse or keyboard from your application but that doesn't seems to be a elegant solution.

The programs will run on Windows XP.

Any other ideas

Thanks
Hurter
