Use WIN32 API FindWindow().

You need to get the process id of the process you want to get the handle for and use OpenProcess.

Here's an example for this as well: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686701(v=VS.85).aspx

Probably try this:

HANDLE hOutlook = FindWindow("rctrl_renwnd32", NULL);
