Windows standalone arrow keys problem

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Greetings Eric from Paris,

Thanks, I hadn't even thought about the flushevents approach. Nothing  
else has worked anyway, so I'll give that a try. Sure makes sense,  
though it eliminates the possibility of the user holding down the  
arrowkeys for quick repeat action to other cards. Se la vi?
