public static System.Windows.Forms.Control FromChildHandle (IntPtr handle);

public static System.Windows.Forms.Control? FromChildHandle (IntPtr handle);

static member FromChildHandle : nativeint -> System.Windows.Forms.Control

Public Shared Function FromChildHandle (handle As IntPtr) As Control

Parameters

handle: IntPtr
nativeint

The window handle (HWND) to search for.

Returns

Control

The Control that represents the control associated with the specified handle; returns null if no control with the specified handle is found.

Remarks

This method searches up the window handle parent chain until it finds a handle that is associated with a control. This method is more reliable than the FromHandle method, because it correctly returns controls that own more than one handle.
