Pinvoke Signatures for FindText from comdlg32.dll

[Kerem Gümrükcü]

Hi,

does anybody have ready-to-go PInvoke Signatures and/or
Prototypes for the FindText Function from comdlg32.dll?
C# would be great, any other DotNet Code would also be
very helpfull.

Cheers,...

Colby's code looked terribly VB6ish so here's how I'd declare it

delegate IntPtr FRHookProc(IntPtr hdlg, uint uiMsg, IntPtr wParam,
IntPtr lParam);

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
struct FINDREPLACE
{
public uint lStructSize;
public IntPtr hwndOwner;
public IntPtr hInstance;
public uint Flags;
public IntPtr lpstrFindWhat;
public IntPtr lpstrReplaceWith;
public ushort wFindWhatLen;
public ushort wReplaceWithLen;
public IntPtr lCustData;
public FRHookProc lpfnHook;
public IntPtr lpTemplateName;
}

[DllImport("comdlg32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
static extern IntPtr FindText(ref FINDREPLACE lpfr);

Since the function is asynchronous and lpstrFindWhat and
lpstrReplaceWith must be valid after it returns, you should allocate
the string buffers from a native heap using the Marshal class.

Hi Mattias,

yes this was VB6 and i did it the hard way. I translated
the complete original C Code to C#. The reason why i
asked this here was that maybe someone has already
done the work and can provide proven and stable code.

By chance i played a little with the FindText and also
subclassed it several ways just to see what possibilities
i have...a lot! :-)

Whenever you have a valid window handle, you
can do everything *g*

Thanks anyway,...
