Can't recall if it happens always are not. I also had my mouse disappear on me occasionally also. Repainting the desktop will bring it back (although it is annoying to have to pause while it happens). I'm using mouse.sys (sorry, don't recall the version, it came with the Windows I installed last week). I might try mouse.com and see what happens. Another thing I've noticed when shelling out is that sometimes when I return, different color bars randomly play across my screen. Sometimes my machine wil crash when I try to run, compile, edit, whatever, sometimes not. I've applied the TC++ patches which came out about a month or two ago (well, maybe longer than that, I've been behind on things :-; ) but no effect. And as long as I'm here, has anyone heard of TC++ v1.01? Guy in the office who got a copy of the Zinc interface kit said it was mentioned in the Zinc manual as the most current version. So long, Brendan
