Im trying to use a global mouse hook to check and see if the mouse location is in the title bar of any open form. I have the hook, so how would I get therectangle of the NC (Non-Client) area of every open form in windows?

Thank you Acamar for your friendly help.

Hi swalker,

Here is another idea for you toget all open windows.

Dim Proc() As Process = Process.GetProcesses()

For Each p As Process In Proc

If p.MainWindowTitle <> Nothing Then
' Gets the native handle of the associated process
Dim hwnd As IntPtr =p.Handle
End If
Next

Process' members:
