Hum, I understand this is not very nice for you, but: 1. using messages inside the UI would mean a rather important design change 2. many apps use popup windows for questions/warnings/etc, they are generally considered as "good UI design" > There are so many different ways to have the program behave that > I have to ask for it to be changed.

Changing the UI to that extend is pretty intrusive I think. The current UI is supposed to be better than a wizard, especially the treeview and information views would not fit very well in a wizard in my opinion.. -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/
