<QUOTE>
I am having difficulty refreshing during a paint session.  I have 

added subroutines to the PAINT_MAIN menu, allowing the user to add predefined prompts and labels.  The subroutine calculates the current prompt properties (position, depth, width, etc..) and adds the new prompt/label(s) to wc_prompts% and wc_labels%.  It also bumps the wc_label_cnt% and wc_prompt_cnt% accordingly.  The problem is that the new item is not visible until you save and repaint the window.  I realize wc_display_action% does not work during paint sessions.  I have tried calling all 40+ subroutines of PAINTSUB to see if any of these refreshes the screen -- No such luck.  I have also tried catalyst and  keyboard scan codes for the save,esc, and repaint keystrokes with no luck.  Can I recall the Paint window initialize subroutine or any other routine to refresh the screen?  Any ideas would be appreciated.  I am using AREV 3.12.

<QUOTE>Actually, I don't see why display_action won't work, since paint is just a regular window, when all's said and done.
