Derek: I hate to be a pest. But since your updating the tutor program anyway. Could you see if you could make the program accept the default colors of the desktop its running on? I really wanted to use this tutor program & found that as usual it forces a white background with black text which I can't use at all. Also, did you ever find out how to make the text color in win32lib dialogs boxes the windows default?
