Hi Bill, I took one of your examples from the Arexx doc files and extended it to a higher range. So typing this line at a Wshell prompt: rx "do err=1 to 48;say err errortext(err);end" For some reason, there is no response from 4, 7 or 38! This question is for anyone who has worked with the rexxarp library: My accounting program (Money.Rexx – about 190k) uses this library. I open a screen with 2 windows. Lots of click/string gadgets and etc. There are about 150 different calls to Request(). Most times I use just the OKAY prompt in this requester. Sometimes I need the CANCEL gadget to show. I'm using SetRGB4 with 8 different colors. The "single" item that I still can't control/fix, is the CANCEL gadgets' color! It comes up green on a grey base. The green is used as the window title area and the base color for the menus. I've tried many combinations of this call: SetReqColor(MYHOST,CANCELPEN,num) and it has no effect! BOXPEN and SHADOWPEN do work! Anyone have some ideas? Regards, Ken Cooper Regards, Ken Cooper

Ken, Not all of the ARexx error codes are currently in use; some of the numbers may have been used in earlier versions. Errortext() will always return the message string associated with an error code in the current version. -Bill Hawes
