DL,
Just in case, since it would be easier, I'll ask: do you *really* want
strict *rectangles* from the text displayed, or would it be sufficient to
drag the mouse to select part of a line or one or more lines of text with
optional part of first & last line? Reason I ask is that there are routines
in Win32Lib that will allow selection & copy portions of text displayed, if
that's what you might want.
