CWnd*ChildWindowFromPoint(POINTpoint**)const;**
CWnd* ChildWindowFromPoint( POINT point**, UINT** nFlags ) const;
Return Value
Identifies the child window that contains the point. It is NULL if the given point lies outside of the client area. If the point is within the client area but is not contained within any child window, CWnd is returned.
