How do you use ActivateGadget() ? I have source to a program that doesn't use it, so that its requester requires clicking. I've tried using ActivateGadget before and after the request, with a Delay(5), but still nothing happens. Is using ActivateGadget more complex than just inserting into already-running code? If someone could point me to a simple example, it would be very helpful.

You should ask for REQSET messages in your IDCMP and not do the ActivateGadget() until your receive the REQSET message. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Carolyn Scheppner -- CBM >>Amiga Technical Support<< UUCP ...{allegra,caip,ihnp4,seismo}!cbmvax!carolyn PHONE 215-431-9180 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
