Hello Gurus,

I have an excel application which communicates to a C# application via COM addins.I need to figure out the area in the Excel workbook which contains the Excel mimimize/maximize/close buttons. So, that I could capture the mouse click event in that area and do something.
If anyone already explored it. Please help.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Vieer

To the best of my knowledge you can't capture the minimise/maximise events in Excel (the Workbook.WindowResize event does not fire).
You could use your C# application to poll the excel object and query it's windowstate to get over that.

Capture the Close button in Excel with the Workbook.BeforeClose event
