EXTERN is just a command like any other, which makes the Windows API functions (or any other DLLs) known to your app as if it was built-in. I use it a lot and I don't even understand 5% of what I do, the only thing that counts is that it _works_. Don't let its somewhat strange look make you unconfortable, it's not that complicated. -- Romain Strieff [TeamB] Please read this newsgroup guide below before posting on the private Inprise newsgroups. http://www.inprise.com/newsgroups/guide.html --
