You have to compile to c code for it to work..... FUNCTION getcursorposition() RETURNING Integer,Integer VARIABLE x,y INTEGER BEGIN_C { POINT *mypoint; (void)GetCursorPos(mypoint); x = (int)(mypoint->x); y = (int)(mypoint->y); } END_C RETURN x,y END FUNCTION There... now if you paste a button and in the activate handler type: DISPLAY getcursorposition() you should see the x and y positions... I am trying to implement timers in NewEra for the bubble sort of help.. did any one manage yet ?? David -- Hey Billy, you owe me one !!
