Thanks for your input mikeblas!<br />

I accept the fact that I do not own the window in question, what I do not understand is why I'm permitted to count and even &nbsp;delete items from the list (flawlessly), when I can't search it.<br />
<br />
Can someone explain that?<br />

I accept the fact that I do not own the window in question, what I do not understand is why I'm permitted to count and even  delete items from the list (flawlessly), when I can't search it.

Can someone explain that?

The problem is moving memory from one process to another. Moving a value, as in a return code, isn't a problem.<br />

Hi All!<br />
<br />
I need to interface with SW already available. (source is not)<br />
I start by obtaining a pointer to the Listview control as follows:<br />
<br />
CWnd* pApp = FindWindow(NULL,WindowTitl<wbr />e);<br />
CWnd* pTmp = pApp-&gt;GetWindow(GW_CHILD);<wbr /><br />
CListCtrl* pListView = (ListCtrl*)pTmp-&gt;GetWindow<wbr />(GW_CHILD)<wbr />;<br />
<br />
Then I count the items using GetItemCount() (successfully)<br />
<br />
The problem arises when I try to find an item using FindItem(&amp;lvInfo)<br />
lvInfo is previously defined as <br />
LV_FINDINFO lvinfo &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;= {0};<br />
lvinfo.flags = LVFI_PARTIAL | LVFI_STRING;<br />
lvinfo.psz = psItem;<br />
<br />
FindInfo refuses to return nothing but -1 allthough the item is present.<br />
<br />
Any help apreciated.<br />
Best Regards / Marcus
