1. it says that you can't un-hide the window because you misunderstood the return value from Show(). from the MSDN documentation for ShowWindow() at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/winui/windows_2tdj.asp the return value for this function is: Nonzero indicates that the window was previously visible. Zero indicates that the window was previously hidden. I'm just returning this value, so it doesn't mean success or failure. 2. the hourglass issue is a bug in version 0.0.665, I'm still looking on how to solve it (help? anybody? ;-) cheers, Aldo __END__ $_=q,just perl,,s, , another ,,s,$, hacker,,print;
