Positioning Other Applicaitons

I am seeking to write code that will allow me to position OTHER forms
besides my own. Currently I use a 3rd party program called Windows Manager.

http://www.download.com/Windows-Mana...ml?tag=lst-0-6

This program allows me to chose an application, and position it where I want
to (in terms of position to the top left pixel of the application. Similar
to:

Location X: 34

Location Y: 353

Vb.net code:

[Me.Location = New Point(34, 353)]

However, I want to do this same procedure in my code. Is there any way of
somehow writing:

THATAPPLICATION.Location = New point(x, y)

them....heres a few that might help you out.
