The WM_NCHITTEST message is sent to a window when the cursor moves, or when a mouse button is pressed or released. If the mouse is not captured, the message is sent to the window beneath the cursor. Otherwise, the message is posted to the window that has captured the mouse.
WM_NCHITTEST xPos = LOWORD(lParam); // horizontal position of cursor yPos = HIWORD(lParam); // vertical position of cursor
