I'll try to answer question #1 - since wsprintf doesn't do floating point, use the sprintf that came with your compiler - unless you have BC++ 2.0 which has a bug in sprintf for floating point numbers. If you have BC++ 2.0 consider writing your own floating point to ascii conversion (that's what I had to do). Note this is not a flame - if that's the only serious problem with BC++ 2.0 I'll still be happy. The bug shows up as follows: sprintf(str, "%f", (float) 24 / 27); which places "1.0" into str rather than "0.88888". Please don't call Borland - I already called it in. I have a floating point to ascii conversion routine which I'll post under coercion... Terrell
