However, there is definitely a way to have two executables talk to each other or just have one read the output of the other. Personally, I wouldn't like to do that for this project in particular as it involves a parent-child scenario. I have faith that we can do this 100% in QB64 (well, more like 95% because there will be some C headers involved). I think I should have more time this week to look at this since I've hit a good spot with getting all my required documentation turned in for my mortgage loan. And, now that I know way more about Win32 API and have better coding habits, I think you and I can do this.
I know how you must feel, looking at code I've done in the past is always eye opening... "I used to do it THAT way?!" LoL

I can be a bit of a pack rat. I'll keep a project on the backburner until I can make more progress, if it seems worthwhile. Sometimes you just have to put something down for a bit and then come back to it when your head is cleared.

I am definitely in over my head and appreciate any help I can get!
