Drat. I've tried both of those: making it a modal dialog at 2,2 with width and height both 156, and I get the error. Then I tried changing it to a non-modal at 0,0 with width and height both 160, and I still get the error. I don't suppose someone with the OS sources could look up Form.c, Line:841 and tell me what conditions it's actually checking there? This is a bothersome problem.
