to a dll or to a class or window which is contained in a dll and your dll is loaded when your app loads presumably? --- Publitor, making Pubmed easy. http://www.sohocode.com/publitor

Unless there is a window with a message loop in your dll, then PostMessage would be useless. Perhaps you should describe what you are wanting to do.

PostThreadMessage() will post a message to a thread that has a GetMessage() loop running. Bikram Singh

Thank you for the reply. Do you tell more details about PostThreadMessage or any source codes? -Freehawk
