HELP!! Blank Window on Standalone????

[Dave]

Hi,

That was it!

In my stack I call a function that resides in an invisible window,  
the function is for debugging and in this case just returns since  
debug is off. However this stops the ***contents*** of the window  
from displaying! I could understand it if the whole window was  
invisible but not just the contents????

I've just taken out the debug calls for now, but I would like to keep  
them in. Any ideas on how to make this work correctly???

All the Best
Dave
