	I think I've found a fairly big buug in TPW.  It first appeared in my
program, butt then I ran te MFILE.PAS, and lo and behold, there it waas.

	The problem comes when you are working with MDIs.  If you open a
childwindow after EXECCDIALOGing a dialog the new childwindows, after the
first, will have the same caption as the dialog!! WHY???  The list of windows
in the menu will have the correct first and last caption, but the ones in
betwen have the dialog's caption.  
	I believe this also haappens sometimes in TPW itself.

	Does this make sense?  I really need this to work right.  My program
will be used by people afriad of computers, so wrong captions are intolable.

Any help?  Any fixes?
