There's two different things you can do to get your windows to reposition.
You can use CascadeWindows to cascade all the windows.  And to stagger them,
you can call TileWindows.  Both APIs are really similar, so here's the
TileWindows one:

Declare Sub TileWindows Lib "User32" ( parentWnd as Integer, how as Integer,
rect as Integer, numKids as Integer, kids as Integer )

You can call it like this:

TileWindows( 0, 1, 0, 0, 0 )

This will tile the windows horizontally.  You can tile them vertically by
making the 1 into a 0.

HTH!
