MDI experts.... Is there any way to wallpaper the MDI Client window with a custom bitmap relatively painlessly in Windows 3.0? Thanks in advance.

Microsoft doesn't supply code that shows you what the mdi client windows window proc is like. This being the case, you're not quite sure how it goes about repainting the client window. Is it responsible for painting all the icons and children? Probably, to some extent. I'd been thinking of a way to do this myself and I havn't come up with a good answer yet. Maybe sometime, though. -- "Organized fandom is composed of a bunch of nitpickers with a thing for trivial pursuit." -Harlan Ellison Patrick Deupree -> patrickd@chinet.chi.il.us
