Isn't that the issue, then? He's writing a dialog to plug in to Explorer, and every time he runs, there's a different "main window". MFC gets its concept of a "main window" from its global state, so unless something in the process tells MFC to refresh its global state, it will have stale information. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
