Thanks for the answer, but its not what I ment
I ment like a MS Word, paint and so on, you know, with files, Edit and all that.
Its not a typing app. I whant to make, but its just a example.

I know that it can't be explained i one post, but a link would be very cool.

Hope that helped to the understanding.

lol, nerd.

Doffer, what you're after is Window's GUI in your app? With Menu's, Pop-up's, Status Bar, Button's, Dialogue Boxe's, etc etc?

If so, the only thing I can suggest is emailing RobK at [email protected] asking him if it's possible to call his BlueGUI functions from within DBC using the Call DLL function, and the undecorated function names

( BlueGUI allows users of DBPro to have all the mentioned Window's gadgets in their apps... http://www.robertknight.me.uk/blue2/site/ )

Other than that, all I can suggest is that you get into some API programming ( definatly one of the hardest things to do in DBC, due to the limitations it can put up against you... I know, cos I am in the progress of writing API for DBP, and that's hard enough ).

Jess.
