Which reminds me of a problem that's been bothering me since I first
started playing with windows:  when you WinExec() or LoadModule() a
program, how to you find out the handle of the window you've just
created?

Here's another one:  what's the practical difference between WinExec()
and LoadModule().  Please don't say "WinExec is an alternative to
LoadModule() and vice versa" -- only lazy techwriters are allowed to
do things like that!
