Yes, your example works entirely different from mine. 
 
As I kind of guessed, it is not really a win32lib problem, I am 
missing some finer point... 
 
It is not a problem with 0.55.5; it is the same on 0.57.12. 
 
Being as I am at or near to my wits end, 
I have uploaded a jpeg (70K) to my web page 
 
http://palacebuilders.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/euphoria.html 
 
which shows something odd. 
After just doing a setText({STATUSBAR,0}, text) it has shown the 
statusbar mid-screen, definitely not where it should be. 
 
I have whacked the whole caboodle (  up there for you to check if 
you so desire, 366K replete with trace(1) statement to get you to see 
the effect yourself. (key return about 30-40 times in the trace window 
until blanked out, alt-tab back to the debug window and it happens 
quite soon. For this I have added "without trace" liberally to 
selected portions of the code & 0.55.5 w32lib) 
 
I should re-iterate this is not precisely the problem I have, but I 
believe it clearly shows something is going wrong somewhere. 
(and despite Derek's example working perfectly, I strongly doubt I did 
anything so bad to cause this particular effect). 
 
I really would appreciate any help or suggestions anyone could give. 
 
(the quintet setBuiltInScrollRange, setScrollPositions, onresizemain, 
ormfix, & reconstructmain in editor.exw are the bane of my life; 
Never in my life have I relied so much on 160 lines of code and been 
quite so afraid of it. It confuses me, thwarts me, surprises me, 
angers me, and depresses me, and I don't know why.....)
