1. Newbie: Win32Lib: moveWindow-?

Hello all, I'm a "newbie"; I don't program very well, & I don't know anything about programming for Windows except what I have read in the various Win32Lib documents. Nonetheless, I'm trying to learn to use Euphoria & Win32Lib to program for windows, with some small success so far. I have a question: I'd like to be able to make one window move "with" another, so that as a "parent" window is moved by the user, a "child" will follow along with it. I found the global procedure "moveWindow" in Win32Lib, but I could find no mention of it in any of the documentation I have. Can I use that procedure, & if so, how, or is there a better approach to what I'm trying to do? Thanks, Dan Moyer

Do you want them to move at the same time, or is it ok for the child window to be repositioned after the parent? -- David Cuny

David, I'd think I'd rather have them move at the "same" time, but it should probably be ok for now for the child to reposition right after the parent. Easy to accomplish is also important! :) If starting to move parent "blanked" child until parent is finally positioned & repainted, moving the child at that time would seem to be perfectly ok, since that's what it would look like anyway if they were moved at the "same" time, wouldn't it?
