Rao, thank you for your reply. But I didn 't understand how it would help me ? There is a window of someone else's application under my window and I need to get a window handle of this someone else's application. In this case, using the FindWindow() function is not possible

under HMG we have this Function
https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-getnextwindow?redirectedfrom=MSDN
HB_FUNC (GETNEXTWINDOW)
{
  HWND hWnd   = (HWND) HMG_parnl (1);
  HWND hWndNext = GetWindow (hWnd, GW_HWNDNEXT);
  HMG_retnl ((LONG_PTR) hWndNext );
}GW_HWNDNEXT 2 Returns a handle to the window below the given window.
GW_HWNDPREV 3 Returns a handle to the window above the given window.

Yes, I understand. Rao, Jimmy thank you !
But I didn 't understand how it would help me ?
Sorry. Your question was different and my answer was different.
While adopting Mr. Jimmy's advice, you need not write all the 'C' code.
You can use the FWH function GetWindow() directly in your program with the same syntax.
GetWindow( hWnd, 2 or 3 )Regards
