this regard.

Hi, I think that you can obtain this using a window function (such as GetWindowInfo) for the window to which the device context belongs. But unfortunately this is not a kernel question, you are likely to get better answers in the following forum: news://news.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.programmer.win32.gdi

FindWindow will get you the window handle. GetClientRect will get you
the size of the client region. ClientToScreen will convert those to
screen coordinates.

However, Daniel is right: this is not the right mailing list for this
question.
