It gives me an Illegal Function call error. And I dont know what could be causing it. And when it DOES work, it does nothing.

heres my code...

Code: Select all

CLS
SCREEN 13
WINDOW (1,1)-(50,50)

WINDOW?

Once you go to full screen mode, you cannot minimize unless you change to SCREEN 0 and use the minimize window QB shortcut keys.

WINDOW is for a viewport area.

Still King!
