Roy, I'm running 1.4, no complaints. Re MouseOffing, same problem: there is a slight lag. Maybe I'm being silly, I dunno — it's perhaps a few hundred milliseconds — but it makes the response feel really strange, and I can't say as I care for it. Not razzing YOUR code in particular, every mouseoff I've tried does this. Question: is it possible to let the mouseoff run as a seperate task/process in a very low overhead, high priority setup? (I know naught about this stuff.) I tried it again last night, and found the UE problem I mentioned. Every time the mouse is turned off OR on, the entire UE screen/window goes away, returns, and refreshes. Terribly annoying, and this was why I gave up with mouseoff on 1.3. NOT your fault, I bet… just an interaction between the programs. Rick
