I find that GetWindowPos> will return negative values for X and Y if used for a full screen window. Is there a logical reason for this?
SetFocus>Yahoo!*
GetWindowPos>Yahoo!*,X,Y
MessageModal>%X% %Y%
returns -4 -4

Quick test on my computer shows the same results if using Firefox as the browser. I get 1,1 if I use Explorer.
Must simply be where they put the window when its maximised. Technically not the same as full screen.
Later,

Interesting, I consistently get -4 -4 with FF and IE, on both W2K and XP.
No big deal really, unless a negative value causes an error when it's passed to some other command but I haven't seen that happen.
