Syntax
WindowList Number
Remarks
Activates a window listed on the Window menu. The instruction WindowList 1 activates the first window in the list, WindowList 2 activates the second window, and so on through the number of open windows. If no windows are listed, or if Number is greater than the number of open windows, an error occurs.
Example
This example activates the first window containing the document TEST.DOC. The InStr() function checks for the string "TEST.DOC" in the window name, which may include extra text such as "(Read-Only)" if the document is read-only, or ":2" if the document is open in more than one window.
numwin = CountWindows() If numwin <> 0 Then i = 1 While i <= numwin And leave <> 1 winname$ = WindowName$(i) If InStr(winname$, "TEST.DOC") Then leave = 1 If leave <> 1 Then i = i + 1 Wend End If If InStr(winname$, "TEST.DOC") Then WindowList i Else MsgBox "There is no window containing TEST.DOC." End If
