embeding windows
« on: March 07, 2004, 09:50:46 PM »
Here's one for ya'll.
I am looking for away to embed a window into the desktop background. For example (and my real purpose in the post) embeding the Command prompt in to the desktop background and still have it functional.
if there are any programmers out there with this knowlege speak out and let your selves be heard:D

No matter how hard you try to push the envelope, remember it's only stationary.

Not asking for much are you?

Zoë: Shepard, isn't the Bible kind of specific about killing?
Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

My friend has a DVD program that can run as the background with the desktop icon over it.

That's because it is using the Active Desktop interface. ;)

A DOS window may be a bit more work.

( the Spirit of Snauz hit me and I needed to correct some spelling because of it. )

Yup, the Snauz effect.  Just read your last post again.
