Sorry for the crossposting, but I've now waisted two days trying to find a
solution for my problem.

I need to construct a program in Delphi 3 (eventually 4), activated from
another program (windows NT in this case).
After the program has started, it must show a form, which of course is no
problem.
It must then automatically start scanning a directory for filenames, and
display whatever it finds in an edit box.
The contents of the files are to be checked, and if errors are found, the
operator can choose to delete the file or not.
In other words, the form must be present before I start fiddling with the
file names.

What I've programmed until now, is put into the initialization part, i.e.
every "action" is in fact completed before the form is displayed.

Anyone have an idea on to accomplish this?

Regards

Nico (www.farumdata.dk)
