DestroyWindow( hWnd ) -> < lSuccess >
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PARAMETER:
<hwnd> Handle of the window that will be destroyed
RETURNS:
<lSuccess> TRUE if the operation was successful
DESCRIPTION:
DestroyWindow() destructs the specified window. It therefore sends the
appropriate messages to the window to deactivate it and removes the input
focus. Then it destroys the windows menu, flushes the application queue,
kills outstanding timers, removes clipboard ownership, and breaks the
clipboard-viewer chain, if the window is at the top of it.
Finally it sends WM_DESTROY and WM_NCDESTROY messages to the
window. If the given window is the parent of any windows, DestroyWindow
automatically destroys these child windows when it destroys the parent
window. The function destroys child windows first, and then the window
itself. DestroyWindow also destroys modeless dialog boxes.
FiveWin manages all these functions automatically through Classes.
