Took about an hour; MS had added a field to the MenuItem record. Of course, I should have had a test function that checked the lengths of all C structs I imported, but that would have meant maintaing some C code with MS Visual Studio; one of the reasons I gave up on Windex. Anyway, if you want the fix, let me know. This is one way of guaging interest in Windex :). If there is sufficient interest, I'll do a release (the fix is _not_ on my website). -- -- Stephe
