DeleteDC(hdDC );



I knew it.
Thank you all for the help :) All is well now.

Ok, here are the details.

I have a while(TRUE) loop that I need to break...Only way I can think to do this is with a if then goto. I know that is poor programming. What is the best way to brake this loop?

In C++, I can initialize pCur like this:



LPPOINT pCur = new tagPOINT;
