I'd recommend using a much simpler alternative. Even if you managed to get threading to work for you, it cannot be debugged in the IDE, and this will make testing & maintenance even harder. - Fri, Dec 17 2004 9:57 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.basic.visual.misc/browse_thread/thread/93971aec18731897 Mouse pointer position - 3 new ------------------------------ ...I just knew there would be a non alcoholic method, Randy.
