Hi,

does anyone know if there is a way to find the
main window for a running application if the caption
is not known ahead?

I want to close several programs from my app.
Given the process IDs I could filter out which
windows belong to a given program. But I would
like to only send WM_CLOSE to the main window.

thanks,
Nick
