Just a note:
The createPixmap() function in the latest release of Win32Lib is entirely
*wrong*. Hopefully, I'll be able to retrieve the correct version of that
routine from a backup.

I found something interesting when I compiled
toolbar that came with win32lib v.54
the program doesnt like -1 (negative numbers)
running the mouse_pointer to the top of the tool
bar you will run into -1 which will crash the system.
I have started the learning curve associated
with win32lib and will try to correct this myself
just thought the rest of you should know about=20
the bug.....hopefully this hasn't been reported yet
and I'm not beating a dead horse...

Hi Euman,
could you give me a little more detail please.=20
the program doesnt like -1 (negative numbers)
running the mouse_pointer to the top of the tool
bar you will run into -1 which will crash the system.
I don't really understand what this sentence is saying? What exactly =
does "running the mouse_pointer" mean? Does it mean manually moving the =
mouse device? Or does it mean programatiically setting the position of =
the mouse pointer? Can you give me a sample code that demonstrates the =
problem you have found? If you have a correction, then please forward it =
to me or the list so I can incorporate it into future releases. Does the =
problem happen only with compiled code or does it also happen with the =
Euphoria interpreter? What does the phrase "you will run into -1" mean? =
Is this a return value of some function? If so which one?
