This does indeed work (thank you). Now just to push a little harder, it would be nice if I could find how to bring my form to the top (therefore visible above all others), but not necessarily steal the kybd entry focus until clicked on. I believe in Windows this is accomplished with the 'StayOnTop' (or similar from memory) - The form remains on top of all apps, not just my own -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
