Post msg. to/from MFC app.?

[Michael Pauli]

Hi, I'm new to WPF and have been into MFC for years. I'm wondering if it is possible to send/post a msg. from a WPF exe onto a MFC exe and back after a job is done? My MFC app. can process messages from windows from all processes in the system but can a WPF app. process the same? I think 'yes' but how ... any pointers would be appriciated. The reason I wan't this is to have a smooth presentation gui made in WPF and base its details on data that originates from the MFC app. In that way both participants do the job they are best at. Kind regards,

Michael Mogensen
