I have 'whipped-up' a quick multitasking application to check my 'Deleted' SysLog file (AntiSpam deletions) every 5 minutes which opens the file in the default text editor if it is of more than zero length. It seems to work OK. Unfortunately I notice I can't quit it from the task manager. Does anyone have any hint as to what vital bit I've missed out which allows this? The program uses SYS "Wimp_PollIdle" to check every 5 minutes in a procedure called PROC_pollidle. Is it that it only returns to be controlled by the task manager for that brief cycle or three every 5 minutes? John -- John Williams, Brittany, Northern France - no attachments to these addresses!
