    Just to broaden your horizons, to see how we do it on linux, see wmctrl and a perl module for X11 sysytems X11::Wmctrl

    You might want to ask around MSwindows groups about a wmctrl-like utility for win32.

    I only mention this, in case your desire is to size windows for existing apps, like start up with position-size = (+100+100+640x480)

    I would guess Microsoft puts entries somewhere in the registry. You can google for "microsoft window sizes" to get some leads.

      Thx for broadining, but I'm already a Linux whore, Win is rarely my playground (though I'm not a virgin ;)

      (I thought talking about "geometry" and "X" in the OP made it clear 8)

      It's a purely private problem of a friend, not a production thing.

      Just to broaden your horizons ... ;-) ... the closest correspondent to wmctrl is IMHO AutoIt using a BASIC like scripting language.
