After reading the input I want to stow the dirview from within the program only. I gues for that I need the Graphics window identifier. Does anybody know how to get hold of it of a window you haven't opened, but the system has opened it for you. Any help would be highly appreciated. please email your replies to goel@cardio.ucsf.edu ps-- or is there a way to open up a window and have the files displayed in it.
