I have no cooking clue as to why you got the color problem... I've now steptraced the proggy and cannot for the life of me find it... (I think i need to set up a system simular to yours to find it... Can you let me know what system, OS, and VB + SP numbers you got... (also i'm using Richtx32.ocx ver 6.0.81.69), maybe theres something different in there....

I'm going to look at it in the morning.. as see if i cant sort it out then ....

I re wrote some of the Sort code and left 1 line out... the File write command... so that was easy...

Also another bug i found while checking it... Try pressing Backspace in the Asci Side... 1 extra line of code in there ....

The scroller needs a whole new coding.... until you mentioned it, I forgot that the scroller is a Integer. I use it's value * 16 ( One line in narrow mode..) giving a total file size of 512K (524288) .. Just as well i wasn't using the value for actual.. )

Unless you got a beter Idea, I'm thinking of checking the File size and adjusting the scrolers multiplier according to the file size... in steps... something like
Code:
  File-Size 	Multiplier
 <524,272 	16
 <8,388,352 	256
 <134,213,632 	4096 
 <536,854,528 	16384
 <2,147,418,112 	65536
Ahh and setting the Scrollers TabStop property has taken care of a lot of other little funnies that were happening...

Will let you know...
