HOW GET THE TITLE TASK WHEN ALT+TAB ARE PRESSED?

hi forum members, excuse me if I bother you, but I need your help with some ideas about advanced visual c programming, this time I have a program , that with your given support , the program can get the text from the buttons which have the focus, but now I’m trying to get the window’s title that is displayed when the user press ALT + TAB for switching the task, I’m trying to get this with CBT HOOKS, but the only data that I got was information about some keys were pressed, thanks for your advice

You don't need any hooks. Enumerate all top level Windows. Just look for the visible ones. Use GetWindowText and you will receive the caption.

You don't need t hook to get a windows handle. I just wrote it in my first post: Enumerate the windows!
The function is called EnumWindows:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/winui/winui/windowsuserinterface/windowing/windows/windowreference/windowfunctions/enumwindows.asp

The task manager does nothing else. It just enumerates the top level windows and call GetWindowText. Thats all!

But , to use the GetWindowText I need to get a window handle, If it is not necesary to use any hook to get a window handle, from where can I get the window handles of the all top level windows
Beside that , how can I enumerate all top level windows

And if I can enumerate all top level windows, is the same thing like to get the name of the (next) window task , that I am going to switch with ALT + TAB keys

Thanks for your attention
