The return value is FALSE if the window is not visible. but secondly: When the WS_VISIBLE style bit is set, the window is shown and subsequent drawing into the window is displayed as long as the window _or_ any of the windows in the parent chain have the WS_VISIBLE style. Is the 'or' in the second quotation a misprint for 'and', or is the 'and' in the first a misprint for 'or'? Thanks for any clarification. -- Esmond Pitt, Computer Power Group ejp@bohra.cpg.oz D
