OWL Help?

The OWL program below works just fine when I ask it to display the dialog box,
but an error window pops up upon exit from the dialog saying that an error
message -1 was received and asking whether it should continue.  I've tried
everything I could think of to fix this problem and I'm fresh out of ideas.
Can anyone out there help me?
