Are they compatible, >or only an extension of exsisting Microsoft tools? I use Borland C++ 3.1, plain C (but not OWL) and they work fine. (Windows 3.1). They were real easy to implement. I do have one small problem with truncation of a string in a MessageBox. The string has embedded \n to make a 10-15 line display, but it truncates at about 10 lines (perhaps 512 characters?). It works fine without ctl3d. I'm not sure how colour changes affect the string, though. -- John A. Grant jagrant@emr1.emr.ca Airborne Geophysics Geological Survey of Canada, Ottawa
