I have an Excel Addin on my site that will give you the class names, amongst other things.

Ref my last message you will need to update the declaration to;

Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32? Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As Any, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long

With respect, I wonder if you missed this form of the call;

lHwnd = FindWindow(0&, "Caption of Window searched for")

You don't need know the class as long as you know the text of the caption of the Window you are looking for.

I recall that wndClass_desked_gsk showed up in your ¨Clear the Immediate Window¨ post a couple of months ago.
There you were using it as the parent of the Immediate window.
Looks all-around useful.
