being new to the world of windows programming, i am having some
difficulty figuring out how to manipulate the events queues to my
advantage.  i have a program that calls a number of window at various
times.  because memory is a little tight on the particular machine
i'm working on, i limit the number of windows that the program can
have active at once.  my question is this: if the user closes one
of the program's windows with the mouse (i.e. clicks on the 'Close'
option of the window's menu), what, if any, signal is generated?
i am trying to manage the program's resources and i can't figure
out how to get the program to realize that a window has been closed
and the memory the window used can be reallocated.

thanks,

pat

p.s. please mail responses.  danke.
