Paul:

Yes, you missed something obvious. Try:

LOCAL FN buildWind
  WINDOW 1,"Simpletween",(0,38)-(300,200),_doczoom+_noAutoClip
  Height =WINDOW(_height)
  Wideness =WINDOW(_width)
  wd$=STR$(Wideness)
  he$=STR$(Height)
  msg$ =wd$+"x"+he$
  PRINT%(0,WINDOW(_height)+12)msg$
END FN

FN buildWind

INPUT "Enter anything to end";a$

END
