You can't reliably write to the screen until the draw window has been set up and that happens in FrmDrawForm(). Before FrmDrawForm(), you can call functions to set things up as long as they don't try to draw stuff on your window. So, for example, you can set the form title with FrmSetTitle() because the docs say "If the form is visible, draw the new title." But you can't call WinDrawRectangle() because its description it "Draw[s] a rectangle in the draw window using the current foreground color" and the draw window won't be set up yet. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
