Is this possible? : : Talib : tmorgan@andromeda.rutgers.edu If its not in a dialog box, it is trivial... Just put up a window where you want it, with whatever you want in it, and no border... It can be made to appear transparent. Then just process mouse messages. If its in a dialog, you will need a custom control... Outta my experence. (If you are using borland, though, their custom controls allow this quite easily.) -- "You want it should sing too?" | /* Yeah we got dogs and Valvoline ngorelic@speclab.cr.usgs.gov | Its a pretty damn good time. */ "Life is pain.
