Hi all First off, can I say a big "THINK YOU!" to all who have helped me over the last few weeks with the few questions I have asked, you have all been a great help! OK, almost newbie question. (Quickly writing this in between doing my real job). I need to be able to put text into my window (easy enough) but update the text on a regular basis. If I update the text, and over write it in exactly the same position as before (but with different text), does it clear a bounding box around the text, or will it just over write the existing text, and make a mess? Also, and moving on slightly, can anyone point me at a web resource that explains how I would draw graphics and insert bitmaps into a win32 window? May thanks for your help, sorry for the newbie questions (again!) Steve |

There are a few samples in the example folder that show how to do this. Cheers, jez. |

Hi Jeremy Thanks for that. I would have tried the text stuff myself, but I am away from home and my code for a while. I`ll go take a look at the drawing examples as well.
