    Window classes

    Is there a way to get and display *all* windows and the class they were created from?

    You can see the Classes for the windows you have opened using Microsoft's Spy++. I am not sure where I got it though.

    Spy++ Comes with Microsoft Visual Studio

    Spy++ is one of the coolest toys around........Its a total diamond!!!

    If you want to do this in your own app....do the following


    EnumWindows() - get a HWND to all open windows

    GetClassName() - then call this to get each class name
