(It's hard to tell because >the instructions for Message_WindowInfo are so unhelpful and vague) Oh thank g*d for that - I thought I was doing something wrong too. Mr Glover kindly sent me information on how to iconise a window. What I want to do is send a window a messge to inform it that its going to be iconised - ie emulate a shift close. It may be much MUCH simpler for me to simply send icon -3 a click message, but I'm not sure how to inform Wimp that the shift key is down. Anyway back to the plot - I tried this send message 17 with action code of 400CC to one of my windows and it never arrives - really odd. Upon return from the SendMessage, R2 is my application task handle so I assume somewhere it got to me, but not in my poll-loop. PLEASE someone, could you tell me how to get this to work! Thanks Felix felixa@microsoft.com
