>_GetWRect() has been in foxtools since at least FPW 2.6. Unless this is an international version of the library, and for some unknown reason, it wasn't included. Try the following from the commnand window (after loading foxtools, of course):
DISPLAY STATUS TO STATUS.TXT NOCONSOLE
>lcstatus = FILETOSTR("STATUS.TXT")
>? AT("_GETWRECT", lcstatus)
The value will be greater than zero if it's there. In versions prior to 6.0, simply issue MODI FILE STATUS.TXT and use the find functionality of the editor.

Hi George,

you were right, it's there.

Do you know where I can find some information about the function and how to use it.
