Could you explain this to me please? I tried Kaleidograph and started
looking at why the "Demo version only" dialog that pops up at the
beginning wasn't blanking the background properly, which I decided was
because the app didn't call BeginPaint but I am very much a novice.

So, if you could explain how you tracked down these bugs I'd very much
appreciate it!
I ran the app under WinNT and Wine, and compared the messages generated using SPY++. There are non-client (border) and background fill messages missing. So then it becomes a matter of figuring out where they should be generated.
That sounds like the problem my app is having, too.  Now that I
have Spyxx.exe running, I see that a WM_NCPAINT message is sent
to that window in WinMe but not in Wine.
Interestingly, a WM_NCPAINT *does* get sent to the parent
window ("AfxFrameOrView42") in wine.  Is it supposed to
percolate down from that to its child area?
