1. Windows Menus

First, congratulations to everybody associated with Euphoria. I have 
only been using it for a short time but I think it's superb. Next, 
probably stupid question. Why does a thin multi-coloured line keep 
appearing underneath Windows menus in Win32Lib IDE. Its there in the IDE 
menu itself and then appears in the applications I build. I am running 
on Windows XP Home Edition on a Sony VAIO with a Sony 1024 x 768 flat 
screen diplay. Any ideas please.

How is this line multi-colored?  like a rainbow gradient? or like line of
different colors stacked on top of each other?  I'm using Windows XP Pro and
didn't see a any difference between *my* programs and Windows' own programs.
Are you using the XP style (Playskool) or the classic style? The only thing
I see under the menu is a shadow. Perhaps you could get us a screens shot?

I don't seem to be getting that line.I just get a light-colored line under
the menu. Perhaps this is caused by your video card? It doubt it though,
since you're only getting this on Euphoria-based projects. Now could this be
a Win32Lib-based problem? Try downloading Euman's EFFM (Euphoria Free File
Manager) since it uses direct API calls. If that eliminates the problem then
we can narrow it down to Win32Lib, if not, then it may be the interpreter.

If you are running Euphoria as a 3.1 program, you might see that line.

Don't know if it is 3.1? If you are using Euphoria 2.4 and didn't run
exw31.exe then you are not. If you are using 2.3 and didn't convert it with
a RDS program, you probably are.

This happens because you are using exw.exe 3.0. You have to convert your exw.exe
to a 4.0 executable or simply download euphoria 2.4. which is already a 2.4 app
