You might like to look at my TextView DLL, which is somewhere on ftp.cica.indiana.edu. It basically manages a scrolling output window for you, and you can write text with various options like timestamping to it with a single API call. Other APIs allow you to clear it, etc, etc. I wrote it originally as a real-time trace system for debugging, and there's a sample app in the ZIP file that demonstrates it. I use it hugely for buiding my PFE editor, and the ability to have a set of trace messages that I can scroll back and examine at leisure is _very_ useful. Alan
