Thanks
        to all who responded to my questions about stack problems
        (Bill Mike, and anyone else whose name I forgot)

        The problem was caused by checking if a child existed in
        the WM_ACTIVATE code using IsWindow (hWnd) in a parent.
        The problem starts when I DestroyWindow(hChild) and it sends
        a WM_ACTIVATE msg to the parent which checks if hChild exists
        (and it still does...) and sets focus to it and into to floor
        I get screwed...


                                        thanks again...

        ps I knew SPY was telling me something interesting but I couldn't
           quite get there.
