CreateWindowEx
Hi All,
Has someone already written some 'free' code in Excel VBA (2003) using the CreateWindowEx API, send some text to it and close it by user action? I really would to consult it if you don't mind. I find a lot of samples but most are written for VB and do not work in Excel. I know, it can be done also with a userform but I would like it to try it once this way. Many thanks for your replies. Wkr, JP |
