I would like to build a window with do different text windows. The first would be a small edit pane without scroll bars for handling inputted words. The second would be a larger, scrolling pane for statically displaying words from a file. I would like to clip from this window but not allow other edits. So far I've gotten this far: 1) Created a CEditText and a CStaticText which are each enclosed in their own CScrollPane. The CScrollPane associated with the CEditText does not have bars, but the one associated with the CStaticText does. I've connected up the panes using InstallPanorama and the result is that I can edit in the edit text and scroll the static one. I can't clip from the static one however. That much is expected. However when I change the CStaticText to be an CEditText, it still won't allow editting in the larger, scrolling pane. Is there any tricks I should know? Does anyone have a sample IWindow for a complex situation like this? Thanks for all the help, Peter Wayner Peter Wayner Department of Computer Science Cornell Univ.

Don't forget to change your gGopher. Your CEditText may have to be modified to switch "itsMainPane" to itself when you get a mouseClick.
