M.S. documentation says I can access the command line arguments by
declaring "extern char *_argv[]" (actually it's __argv with 2 underscores,
_argv with 1 underscore is not defined).  When I do this, I get garbage
when I access the array, although __argc seems to be set correctly.
Is there a trick to getting this to work?  I'd prefer to access argv
rather than parsing lpCmdLine which gets passed to WinMain.

My second question has to do with radio buttons: It seems that
when a radiobutton receives focus, either via a mouse click or by
the software setting it explicitly, I get a WM_COMMAND message
indicating the button was selected.  (So when the button is selected
via a mouse click, I process the click twice - once for when it
receives focus and once for the actual click.)  Has anyone else
seen this behavior?  Is it a windows bug or am I doing something
wrong?

Thanks,
