i've actually anticipated and written for a Windows-style flow control, 
but of course it's not finished.

while i appreciate your devotion to Visual Basic, i am steadily leaning 
toward an open source, non-Microsoft, 64-bit, Linux-clustered world.

a long, long time ago in a college far, far away i had to learn assembly 
and some other low level languages, so if it weren't for the sheer 
numbers of API routines (in Windows AND Linux) i would probably think 
about going back there. coming into the world of object oriented 
programming (Pearl, Ruby, Python, etc.) has its advantages, but somehow 
i'm reluctant to want to wrap my head around a new language.

i think the easiest (and hardest!) thing for me to do is as you say, 
just "look inside Win32lib".

thanks,
