Thank you for replying Al.

I'm trying to create a slide show with your viewer (which I've done).
Now I would like to pause or stop it during the show.

     for x=1 to length(DirList)
        onClick_ButtonForward()
      ---  doEvents(0)
       -- onKeyDown[Win]=routine_id("onKeyDown_Win")
     end for

It won't recognize the keystroke while the loop is running.
I beleieve doEvents will fix that.

I 'm changing all the confliting terms in win32r.ew as such:
getText() to agettext() but this is taking quie a long time and I'm about 
to give up on that avenue.

If you know another way to jump in the loop ,without win32lib, I'd sure 
appriciate it.
