This message is for Peter Lomax Hi Pete I'm new to euphoria and after exploring several editor, I adopted Meditor Ver: 2.0.3 and I work with windows XP. I used Meditor to code all the EDS functions. When I reach approximately 250 lines more or less, the mouse became totally inoperative. The program still responded to keyboard input and I am able to save but have to exit with Ctrl C. If I reload the same program in Meditor, Everything works fine. When hitting Ctrl c, the program close and I see 4 overlapping small windows all saying the samething "Draw rectangle : Rectangle fail yes,no,cancell button". Do you know what is the problem? TIA I love Meditor. Please fix it. Regards Serge Lavigne

The=20 Well, on my humble 233MHz, 48MB windows 98 box, I've currently got the 26,750 line win32lib open no problem, and have had most days this year >program still responded to keyboard input and I am able to save but have= =20 >to exit with Ctrl C.

I think the message you are getting is from drawRectangle() in win32lib. Does this happen often, or just the once? You might have a problem with system resources (right click on My Computer and select Performance - assuming that is still there in XP) How much memory do you have and what percent of system resources are free? The other question is how long since you last rebooted? Maybe Derek might have another idea why drawRectangle() would give up. BTW, Derek, is there some reason you can kill a program with abort(0) from a warning message [by pressing Cancel], but it won't generate an ex.err file? I can't see the logic in that. Regards Pete

I can't see the logic in that. A warning message is not so serious. But I guess it doesn't hurt to = produce a ex.err file each time. I'll change this then, if no one = objects. --=20 Derek

IMHO, that points to a bad system install &/or a (subtle) hardware problem. Obviously there is no way that your PC being asleep a while should knacker the programs running on it, whether they are M$, Basic, C, C++, Eu, or whatever, - bugs included or not ;-( I'll live with being corrected, though Pete
