CChris,
I downloaded the WinLib - it reports itself as being 0.60.67; is that right? -
and it is just as bad. The problem does NOT appear to be repeatable. I actually
noted exactly what I had done to get the syndrome, but when I repeated that it
didn't occur again.  I have never had this problem with the Win32Lib which is
the 0.60.6 that Judith et al modified for use with IDE in what is now some
years.
So whatever the problem is, it is new.
If I am the only person with this bug then I shall stick with 0.60.6 modded
and stop causing trouble. But I guess that if I am getting it then others will
be too.
I don't want to cause friction between you and Derek; you're the only two who
keep Win32Lib up to scratch and since I use it for ALL my Windows XP programming
the last thing I want to do is to get the two of you at each others throats!
I really appreciate what the two of you have done and are doing.

Andy
