For those who don't have BCC, the debugger has one feature that makes the whole package worth it. A (text-based) dialog box can be set up to log and/or break on windows messages, ala Spy. It traps messages for window handels as well as procedures, and they're displayed in a human-readable format (for example: WM_COMMAND 12 12345). So, imagine being able to fire up the debugger and say: 1. Log all MOUSE message sent to hMyWindow 2. Log all messages sent to WndProc 3. Break whenever hMyWindow recieves a WM_LBUTTONDOWN Nice! Much better than trying to run Spy to figure out what's going on. dave dave@wucs1.wustl.edu the mira corporation 314/434/4343
