Search MSDN for "Scroll Bar Controls in Win32". The message I think you =
are interested in is SBM_GETPOS.

Subject: [GD-Windows] Troubles with Win32 slider

I put a vanilla Win32 slider in a dialog (in VC6's resource editor), and =
I can't seem to get it work.

This is probably very easy once you know how to do it, but neither the =
MSDN nor Google seems to answer this basic question clearly : how do I =
get back the slider's position ? (!)

Note that :
- For checkboxes or radio buttons it worked like a charm using, for =
example, IsDlgButtonChecked(). I'm looking for similar brain-dead =
functions to handle sliders.
- I don't want to / can't use MFC here.
- I tried to catch various messages in the parent window, =
GetScrollPos(), etc, nothing seems to work.

I'll appreciate a small overview, or a working link to a decent =
tutorial.

Thanks,

- Pierre
