Thanks Robert,
this problem with ChildWindowFromPoint had all of us perplexed. I didn't
even suspect a structure needed to be passed! I read the WinAPI manual so
many times and completely glossed over that very important detail. Its a
moot point now because the latest version(s) of the library do not use this
method of getting a child window's hWnd but maybe I could now reinstate this
method.
