I am trying to write a program that scrolls the Internet Explorer's window upwards and downwards. I have almost what I need with the following line of code: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SendMessage(h, WM_VSCROLL, MAKEWPARAM(SB_LINEUP,0), 0); ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- However this scrolls a bit too fast. I am looking for smooth and gradual scrolling as if the scroll bar was dragged slowly. I have tried replacing SB_LINEUP with SB_THUMBTRACK or SB_TRACKPOSITION and am able to get fine-grained control with this. The only problem is I cannot figure out how to determine the start position value (for the high part of WPARAM) so I cannot do a relative scroll from where the scroll bar currently is. I tried using GetScrollInfo() as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------- SCROLLINFO si; si.cbSize = sizeof(SCROLLINFO); si.fMask = SIF_TRACKPOS | SIF_RANGE | SIF_POS; res = GetScrollInfo(h, SB_CTL, &si); ---------------------------------------------------------- I get res = 1 but the values in si look incorrect: min = 29104704, max = 29102632, pos = 127, nTrackPos = 19, res = 1, le = 183 These do not change when I scroll the window (manually or with the above code), and if I remove the fmask=... line I get the same values, so these are definately invalid. GetScrollPos() returns pos = 0 and GetLastError() returns 0 the first time, and 183 all the other times (I think this value is being set by another function and is meaningless). I looked at the IE window with SPY++ and there doesn't seem to be a scroll bar control (separate window containg the scroll bar). This may be why the functions don't work. Does anyone know of a way to get the vertical scroll bar position on IE? I will eventually use this on other programs so a general solution would be good, though a hack that only works for IE is also ok at this point.
