1. [WIN] holding events up...

Heya all!

Okay, I want to start a window at the beginning of the program, and 
what I've done is gone and set onGotFocus to the window to call the 
procedure. However, one of the first things the window does is gets 
focus, then it goes to paint the window...

Okay, is there _some_ way to wait til the window is repainted before 
starting a procedure, so I can have this cutesy little loading window 
before it goes into the main window?

TIA,

--"LEVIATHAN"

Does this sort of thing help....

openWindow(SplashWindow, Normal)
MyInitialization()
closeWindow(SplashWindow)
WinMain(MainWindow, Normal)

setVisible(MainWin, False) until you want it to show.
