    Thanks CommonTator for the example code. Actually, I already have the complete source code done in my project. There were only four areas of concern (the ones I posted as questions) that I thought could use some ironing out.

    Ahhh... OK... The thing with windows is there's almost always a function call or message for everything. It is a pretty complete API... so there shouldn't be much fuss... Even the search functions are basically strstr() calls, on a pointer to the edit control's text buffer, which can be obtained by a message... If you think of those edit windows as "one big string", things get a lot easier.
