1. RE: Questions about IDE and perhaps Win32Lib

Ray,

If you're just interested in control placement/alignment then I would 
suggest looking at Don Phillip's xControls library (in the archive) 
which automatically adjusts size and placement for controls in a window 
when it's resized.

My solution to that problem was:

1. K = <Get the screen resolution.>

2. Write a little function "mK()" that adjusts things to the screen 
resolution.

3. Run all sizes and all positions of all widgets thru mK().

  For an example see any one of most of my programs under user 
contributions.
