Ok, the last difference that I see from here between your project and the example is the icon file. That shouldn't cause any problem, but just in case try to use the .ico file from the example on your project and see if it works. Also try to compile and run the example project. Those things should put the problem on a corner. Anyway, it's just a question of logic, if the example works, how is your program different? -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
