From a post of Uwe :

aRect := GetWndRect(oWnd)
oBar := TExplorerBar():New( 0, aRect4 - 300, aRect4 + 720, aRect3 - 75, oWnd )

Mayby also on oDlg

How can I read the position and the size of a dilalog box in my application?

To get the dialog position from screen-top and left and the dialogsize

oRect := oDlg:GetRect()

nTop := oRect:nTop
nLeft := oRect:nLeft

nWidth := oDlg:nWidth
nHeight := oDlg:nHeight

// ----------------

Resizing a dialog You need as well :

nBottom := oRect:nBottom
nRight := oRect:nRight

// restore the dialog to a saved position
oDlg:Move( nTop, nLeft, nRight - nLeft, nBottom - nTop )

Window :

aRect := GetWndRect( oWnd:hWnd )
nTop := aRect[ 1 ]
nLeft := aRect[ 2 ]
nBottom := aRect[ 3 ]
nRight := aRect[ 4 ]

nHeight := aRect[ 3 ] - aRect[ 1 ] + 1
nWidth := aRect[ 4 ] - aRect[ 2 ] + 1
