    Hey guys my little "robot application" is coming along nicely now, but ive hit ANOTHER wall lol basically i want to wait until a certain Edit field comes back into focus on a different application running on windows... Ive tried using Win32.GetFocus() to return the handle to the currently selected window, but that only seems to work for the calling thread... Win32.GetForegroundWindow() allows me to get the handle to the current application, however i need the Edit field that is current focused (has the cursor in ready for input)... is there any other way of finding this out from a differnent application sat in the system tray? Cheers!! Will
