I do not remember all details. One case was, that some MFC class wrapper for a GUI object simply didn't free the resource in its destructor. But this was long time ago, and since then it became obvious (to us) that it is far more easier to develop Windows applications using raw Windows API. And of course, another good reason to push for Ada! (:-)) --- Regards, Dmitry Kazakov www.dmitry-kazakov.de
