Thanks Gambit.

Wow, that's good stuff. I was sure there was a way out of my loop dilemma, 
but the functions were all new to me. Determining the proper way to use them 
together was posing a riddle. LOL

I've never come across CharNext or DefWindowProc, but they are in my 
"Bag-O-Tricks" now. :)

I modified my Say function to prevent altering static memory. I probably 
would have realized that had I looked closely enough at it.

As you've probably guessed, this is a Windows CE application. That was why I 
declared everything as wchar_t, but you are right: The code is more portable 
with TCHAR.

Let me ask this: Why do most people use TEXT("This is text") instead of 
L"This is text"?

Having my little pinky hold down the shift key while I type just seems a 
little like busy work, but there may be portability reasons that I'm not 
aware of. My help says TEXT is a macro for the "L" version. I just want to 
make sure I'm not missing something.

Regards,
PJ
