Good Luck, sorry for the briskness--I was hung over that morning ;) If you have any more questions feel free to ask. I would still recommend merging the projects one at a time...

I see... Thanks Justin. So, if I took one main method, and then only included each unique element from each sample main method, that would provide me with a main method that supports all of the functions contained in each sample? I think I've got the grasp of the Windows handling stuff - that would be the InitDlg stuff right? Then, I could copy any paste from the various GUIs into one big GUI? I'll give it a try anyway and hope for the best, wish me luck! Paul Godden --- justin <jlove@xxxxxxx> wrote: > > Q.
