Wimp_StartTask will start whatever task it is told to start, it is irrelevant to the Wimp what the calling task is. However if you intend to start a second instance of a task then you should make sure that the task is capable of running multiple instances. eg. don't use 'raw' OS variables or any shared resources which could cause conflict. Make sure that the program doesn't leave any files open except when they're actually being accessed, etc. Naturally all of this will depend on the nature of the task. -- David Holden - APDL - <http://www.apdl.co.uk>
