I'd still like to keep processing for each window separate, so that if
a key is pressed in window1 it gets handled by window1's code...

Thomas,

As I understand it, you have only one program that oversees all your
windows. On your keydown rtn you have to  check which window has focus then
go to that rtn to do your stuff.

Unless we get threads, right? Then each window can have it's own handler 
code, as a parent, and run more or less independantly, depending on your 
inter-thread code? Seems like this would mean Eu popup dialog boxes, or 
user entry boxes, could be treated as objects?
