Any good texts ? > If you know X relatively well, many of the concepts will serve you well in the MS SDK. The Xt Intrinsics use a similar callback approach, but not exactly the same. The SDK took me about 2 months to become truely proficient to the point I could just sit down and write pretty much what I wanted to. BUT, I had 3 Years X under my belt (and a lot of that was Beta and Alpha X 10). I think a few months is all you'll need. |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Tom Hite | The views expressed by me | |Manager, Product development | are mine, not necessarily | |CADSI (Computer Aided Design Software Inc. | the views of CADSI. | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
