Hi, I remember someone asking why they received th above color combination when placing an object designed for a TDialog in a TWindow. The general concensous ( correctly ) of the list was that the object as is was not intended to be used in a window. I don't remember if anyone ever posted the reason that color combination appeared. While reading through the addition DOC file that came with TV, I found the answer. In VIEWS.PAS, there is a CONST ( CONST ErrorAttr : BYTE = $CF ; ) that is returned if a TView.GetColor fails to properly map a color. There are several other GOOD things to know in these DOCs such as the fact that TSortedCollection CAN handle duplicates if you set TSortedCollections.duplicates := TRUE ;, etc. tom +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Thomas E.
