Hi there Don,

Here's a quick example:

constant W2=EzWindow:Create(
  0,                     --style Ex
  WS_VISIBLE+WS_POPUP,   --style
  #FF00FF,               --background color (violet)
  "Window 2",            --caption (can be " " for no caption)
  20, 20,                --xpos, ypos
  300, 200,              --width, height
  0,                     --parent ID (none, or 'Desktop')
  0)                     --events (none yet)

The above creates a small violet window with no border,caption, or
system menu.

If you dont like making colors in hex yourself, you can use
WindowsColors.ew which defines lots of colors by name.  For example...


include WindowsColors.ew
constant W2=EzWindow:Create(
  0,                     --style Ex
  WS_VISIBLE+WS_POPUP,   --style
  DarkGoldenrod,         --background color (from WindowsColors.ew)
  "Window 2",            --caption (can be " " for no caption)
  20, 20,                --xpos, ypos
  300, 200,              --width, height
  0,                     --parent ID (none, or 'Desktop')
  0)                     --events (none yet)




I guess you're going 'full screen' with this window?  Is that it?


Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
