I inquired about this before and got no response.
I guess the first problem would be to convert the control Window 
  from 
 Window1 =  createEx( Window, "Find", 0, Default, Default, 587, 394, 0, 0 )
  (all those numbers) to the wx frame stuff.
I'm don't know if that can bee done.
I'm going to fool with it.
