We actually figured this out about 20 minutes after emailing it - the solution came after figuring out why our menu bar wasn't showing after a refresh. In the Windows.pl file attached yesterday, we "my" the menu, which expires after &gui_init returns. The simple solution was to make the menu global... Similar thing's happened with the image - as soon as we made the image global it displayed fine. The rest of your message was informative - thanks. Definitely a printout. Any more thoughts on my DoEvents problem causing all those warning's? I was initially thinking to define a empty subroutine for mouse movement, because the warn's increased exponentially when I flurried my mouse over the window, but just having the focus on the window causes the warnings... Looking through the archives suggested that other people are seeing this too, but besides a workaround that doesn't solve the problem (just quenches it), no solutions... Any ideas?
