It then modifies either the pointer to the window's title, or the data pointed to by said pointer. The RKM says to LockIBase() before referencing IntuitionBase. So, that is no problem. Now, will that also protect me while I mess with the Title pointer, or should I Forbid() first? Thanks in advance......
