You should be able to open your window OK by setting CUSTOMSCREEN and installing the screen pointer in the NewWindow structure. I do this in ConMan if you pass a screen address in the console spec, though as noted before it's note safe unless you are controlling the screen closing. You *could* SetFunction the CloseScreen call, but suppose you're not ready to close the window down? Things get more complicated quickly if you have to save the screen pointer to close later, etc. -Bill
