Declare Function IsIconic Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
Platforms: Win 32s, Win 95/98, Win NT
IsIconic finds if a given window is minimized or not. The function returns 0 if the window is not minimized (it could be either restored or maximized); it returns a non-zero value if the window is minimized.
Example:
' Determine if the window Form1 is maximized, minimized, or restored. Dim minflag As Long, maxflag As Long ' receive minimized or maximized status minflag = IsIconic(Form1.hWnd) ' is Form1 minimized? maxflag = IsZoomed(Form1.hWnd) ' is Form1 maximized? If minflag <> 0 Then Debug.Print "Form1 is minimized." Elseif maxflag <> 0 Then Debug.Print "Form1 is maximized." Else Debug.Print "Form1 is restored." End If
