So what you're saying is that I should send PINBOARD the message that the
wimp sends to it - anybody know what it is?!

Also how do I get memory from another task without it 'knowing' about it.
I need to get the text out of a menu created by another app - this is
fine unless the text is indirected. Suggestions - anybody done it?

Thanks
