I'm confused about a memory leak the new POSE 3.4 is reporting and I'm hoping someone can enlighten me. I have two methods used to save a screen rectangle and restore it. Something like this: static WinHandle offscreen = 0; void Save(void) { offscreen = WinCreateOffscreenWindow(...);

Sounds like you're trying to access an internal table structure. That's a no-no because your app might not run on future releases of Palm OS. Check out TblGetNumberofColumns if you're on Palm OS 4.0 or above. Or, check out TblGlue.h for a corresponding function that will support earlier
