Thanks for replying. What I meant was hard to describe. On my computer, when 
I open the euphoria editor for instance, it appears inside a window which I 
cannot maximize, the only way to maximize it is by ctrl-enter, then it takes 
over the whole screen and makes multitasking difficult. I want to write a 
program which utilizes graphics-mode 261, yet is within a window which can 
be maximized, but not take the whole screen. I guess I'm asking what the 
best way to perform windowed-graphics. Graphics within a window which can be 
maximized to almost the entire screen, just leaving the windows taskbar on 
bottom, with the traditional minimize and maximize buttons on top. I thought 
maybe there was some win32 routines I could use, that would be fairly simple 
to implement. You know what I mean though? One giant window which I can run 
a graphical program inside, which still fits with the rest of the windows 
environment.
