True, i have stacks doing this sometimes - kind of differently mind you - the current version WinN2O will not draw colored text for the moment but at the office it works!!! Incidentally, when I debug the stack it works... BAffled i am too sometimes ;) That's why it's useful to check all inputs and outputs... Just in case... I've seen them pink crocodiles comming down the pipe sometimes! Otherwise, just rewrite it... Usually turns out to be better code! ;)
