Hi Roman, Well I couldn't get your program to run on XP, so I started tinkering this afternoon which is always dangerous. So I wound up writing my own Win32 ASCII drawing program (ASCIICAD). Does file save/load, has sort of smart joins, print preview... Kind of fun. If anyone wants to see how I waste my time: http://GuestUser:Guest@wd5gnr.virtualave.net/cgi-bin/TWiki/view.pl/Main/ AsciiCad You can see a screen shot and download a copy too. I haven't tested it much and it's about an hour and half of effort, so don't be too critical :-) Al Williams AWC * Floating point A/D http://www.al-williams.com/awce/pak9.htm P.S. My wife will be back from an out of town trip tonight, so less time to do geeky things like this :-( -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
