Hi, I would like to find out which window is active (e.g. in taskbar we have several applications are running ADOBE, Winword, Excel.... and I am working on winword). I would like to know how to get the current application name or file name (e.g. test.doc). Pls suggest. Thanks

HWND hWnd=GetActiveWindow(); char *s; GetWindowText(hWnd,s); Then compare s and file name to get focus window. strcmp(s,filename);
