First register a window message for your application using RegisterWindowMessage and provide a handler for this message, then broadcast this message. This message will only be processed by your application since the Message id will be unique for your application.

i'm not sure at all the OP wants to send a own defined message. it seems more that he is trying to send an already defined message to some windows the OP don't own at all

:~ HWND_BROADCAST is one option, but this sends the message to all top level windows.

Another solution is to create another message( a unique message so that only your application can process this mesasge ) and send that message to the window you got through FindWindowEx. If the window responds, u can came in to conclusion that u have got the handle you want, if not find the next window with the same name using FindWindowEx

Well, wasn't that the point...? E.g. :

It sounds to me like you want to send messages to windows with the same title, but you cannot use
::FindWindow()because you find windows with the same title, which ...errhh... are the ones you want to send the message to...:confused::confused: I must have gotten you wrong. Can you rephrase it? What message do you want to send? Is it your own user-defined or an ordinary windows message such asWM_CLOSE? What is the criteria that makes a certain window a candidate for receiving such message? What have you done so far and why do you think it's not working?

But do those same-titled windows belong to the same class?
