I have some basic questions for those netters knowledgable in
PM programming.

1.  If I have a Program Object that I create on the desktop,
    and then the user moves it into a folder, is there some
    way I can query its location so I can delete it.  If I
    give its location as the desktop on the delete call,
    the object is not removed.

2.  Is there an API (I program in C) to do a print screen/window.
    I would like to programatically duplicate the functionality
    of the print screen key on the keyboard.

3.  I have a _beginthread call which sometime seg faults (SYS3175).
    The registers say the error occurs in CSET2.DLL probably in
    a ReleaseSemaphore call.  My guess is whatever stuff it needs
    to copy for the new thread is too big, but if someone has
    seen this, and fixed it?!, please let me know.

 Thanks is advance for any help you may be able to give me,
