Right you are David. Thanks. Yes, the item is found under
Control Panel -> Display -> Plus! - Visual Settings. The "Show window
contents while dragging" option needs to be turned off.
Thanks,

This has nothing to do with IDL. It is a configurable item on
Windows NT machines. I am sitting in front of a Macintosh
with no access to a Windows platform, but as I recall you
go to the "desktop" control panel (or whatever it is called
in Windows NT) and turn "window drag" option off.
If someone knows the correct terminology here, I'd be
happy to put the correct info on my web page for future
reference.
