I do not agree with you. It is far better as windows is now. Greater resolution means that the user can view more, not view same thing bigger. You have to design your program for the standard resolution (640x480) and handle the Resize event then resize everything on the window. You also should handle the WM_GETMINMAXINFO to limit the windows size into some dimensions under or above which you cannot resize/reposition everthing correctly. You can even do all that processing automatically by designing a form (easy to use with form inheritance) which scan all the components and resize, reposition them correctly. You can for example use the tag property to store for 8 bits numbers reresenting the ratio between the size of the window and the size or the position of every control (size, position, X, Y, giving four numbers) on creation, you build an array with original size and position and on form resize you resize controls and reposition them. You can also descend every component you use to a new one having the required properties and behaviour to resize/reposition them self. There are also commercial solution availables.

Again, you probably have something else named Text within the scope of your code, probably a property of some class. Preferencing it with the System unit name (System.Text) would work, although TextFile exists for this very reason. ...Gary --- GoldED 2.41 * Origin: The Flying Circus BBS, Farmington Hills, MI, USA.

ExtractIcon and ExtractAssociatedIcon does not work, because they return icons with the 32x32 size which is too big. The icons have to be about 16x15 or so. Anyone who can help me out here?

How do I add support for Win95 Long file namesin PP> a FileListBox in D1?. As far as I know, it is not an easy deal. Delphi 1 is 16 bits and does not knows about 32 bit features. You should probably rewrite your own component, detecting that W95 is running and calling the new [DOS] functionnalities to get long file names. May be you can, just override a method in the original FileListBox component. Look at the component source code if you have it.
