I know, I've been doing Delphi since the first version and c/c++ before that, so it's second nature to me now. Unfortunately, the latest version's help system is not very good at the moment. I learned Delphi by having the Delphi help and the Win32 SDK help constantly open. If you can get a copy of it, the Delphi 7 help is quite good and for the most part current. Also there are good web sites one is: http://www.delphibasics.co.uk/index.html and there are others. Google is also a good source. Also, I find that these groups are a wealth of information (and helpful people!), so never hesitate to ask questions here. It one's of Delphi's strengths, its developer community.

Mnay many hours wasted searching for a solution to this > particular simple and common requirement before I asked here.
