Combining text & graphic windows under one shell.

Is there a way to display a text window and a graphic one inside the same shell (window). We still have an old Clipper 5.2 app (too big to port it right away to FiveWin) that interfaces with a FiveWin/xHarbour one. I like to show an image side by side along the text window. Is this possible ?

Try a splitter. There are several samples in the \samples directory.

James: thank you for your help. Only one question remains: can the splitter control take control of a DOS window (NTVDM) ?

I don't think so.
