Getting PowerPoint 2003 hWnd in VB

S

Stumpiana

When I automate a PowerPoint application, for Office 2000 I do the following
to get a handle to the PowerPoint window:

strCaption = mobjPptApp.Caption & " - [" & mobjPptApp.Windows(1).Caption &
"]"
mHwnd = FindWindow("PP9FrameClass", strCaption)

This does not work for Office 2003. What would be the procedure for
PowerPoint in Office 2003 and also Office XP?

Thank you,

PowerPoint XP/2002 = Version 10 so PP10FrameClass
PowerPoint 2003 = Version 11 so PP11FrameClass
PowerPoint97 = Version 8 so PP97FrameClass Huh? Yeah.
