Neil, Tell you what. You sit down at your Macintosh and write the code to handle a single closeable, resizeable, zoomable window on the Macintosh all with a standard Apple menu and a minimal File menu. Then I'll sit down at my PC and do the same thing in Windows. Guess what? You're code will be _much_ _much_ longer and significantly more complex than my Windows code. If that doesn't convince you, then lets add multiple document windows. You see, you're problem gets exponetially difficult whilst I just ride on the Multiple Document Interface. I've programmed Macintosh. I've programmed Windows. Windows is noticeably _and_ significantly easier to program than Macintosh. I've done both…I know. David
