This code consists of three files, two are a header file and source file for the window docking system and the third is a simple program that demonstrates the use of the window docking system.
The window docking system allows any number of windows to snap to and dock with a main window using purely Win32 API code, none of that nasty MFC stuff!

Hmm, I entered a lot more information when I uploaded the code and it hasn't appeared. One thing I would like to mention is that this is my first attempt at window docking and if you have any comments, questions or suggestions for improvement then please email me or leave feedback for me. Thank you very much! (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
(Not spam) http://www.catch22.net/tuts/ has lots of nice Win32 tutorials too, including docking, splitter, toolbar, ole, and even systems level programming. It might help you improve your own work :) (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Thanks for the ratings and feedback so far. And thanks for that link Seth McDowell, I have just had a quick look and it has some brilliant tutorials. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Not bad at all for a first attempt at docking. My only criticism is I would have liked to have seen your code put inside of a namespace and also an end to hungarian notation. Sure you have to use where its forced on you but it should never be necessary where you name the variables. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
