Solve : WinAPI Using starting console?

1.	Solve : WinAPI Using starting console?
Answer» How does one detect and attach itself to the console window it was started from (if it was started from a console window)?You don't, at least not as I understand it. Only way to be part of an EXISTING console is to have the EXECUTABLE set as a Console program. Otherwise, it doesn't get a console, and the console that it started from oesn't BELONG to it's process so you couldn't AttachConsole() to it anyway. So no WINDOWS applications can use their starting console? That's a shame... It's no massive deal, it's simple enough to AllocConsole. Okay, thanks then.How do you thank people for a POST with the 'thanks' system?
