I have a question regarding opening a window on a custom screen. I am using the 
examples from the "Programmers Guide to the Amiga" , chapter four(pgs 118-119).

The example calls for using the OpenScreen function followed by the OpenWindow 
function. Redefining window.Screen to point to the customscreen and window.Type toCUSTOMSCREEN is required before calling OpenWindow.
The call to OpenWindow fails when window.Type is set to CUSTOMSCREEN. If 
window.Type is left set to WBENCHSCREEN then the customscreen is opened over the
window but without any way to close the window. It dosen't appear to be failing 
due to insufficient memory (~600K available before running the program).

System Conf:
Amiga 2000 w/1meg  (Rev 6)
Quantum 40 meg drive w/Trumpcard controller

Thanks in advance
