David, >> Please, enlighten us with the "things you've been hearing" with regards to Windows "gotchas". I am not able to give you specifics. What I can tell you is that the Windows API is counter intuitive ENOUGH that experienced programmers read through documentation, run into a problem and then have to spend time struggling through little problems. Once they figure things out, things make sense. Nothing is earth shattering, they are just time consuming. Since you have *no* problems writing code for Wiindows, you must be a superior programmer that knows everything in the world about Windows and never runs into these little problems. The rest of the world simply must not be as experienced as you are. Neil
