You will have to implement the feature which looks to me like much work which is why it wasn't done that way by default. > or to enlarge its message box sufficiently to display the entire > question? The dialog is included as a binary resource in a DLL, win32ui.pyd. You could get the source code, change the dialog resource and recompile PythonWin. Another approach would be to manipulate the dialog and control sizes after creation in pythonwin/pywin/mfc/dialog.py GetSimpleInput(). Neil -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
