Are you using win32lib v0.59.2? I know that with that version if configurations is opened all checkboxes and radio buttons end up checked, even if they were not checked before. I was checking the preferred language change at the time I discovered this and I do not know if this happens under other situations because I immediately went back to using v0.59.1. One of the tabs in configurations is the grid information. After using configurations the grid is changed from dots to lines which gives the effect of many little boxes on Design. You need to use win32lib v0.59.1 and then go into configurations and examine all the radio and checkbox fields for correctness and be sure to look at grid tab. If I remember correctly both 'lines' and 'dots' will be checked. I can't remember about the win32lib warning message. I got one but I can not remember which one it was. If you are using win32lib v0.59.1 I do not have a clue what is happening to you. I would suggest you look at the grid tab in configurations and if 'lines' radio is checked, check 'dots' instead. Also for your information you can turn off grid via Menu Options/Grid Hide. If this information does not solve the problem, please let me know. --judith Judith, I just got the latest IDE to begin work on another project and when I start the program I get the standard Win32Lib warning window about drawRectangle() failed. If I click Yes I get 5-7 more such warnings before the main window appears. I'm assuming it's related to the squares now drawn on the form? I looked in the docs and couldn't find anything about this. What is the purpose of these squares and is it possible to not display them? Thanks, Jonas
