Hi!

Instead of trying to change the box size dynamically, I would suggest that you use separate BOX command for each size of the boundary.

At first, in the MAIN window, just draw a horizontal line. Then with each line item you can put the lines on the left and right sides and at the end draw another horizontal line to close the box.

You can also use variables to hold the values of the parameters for the BOX command. So to draw the vertical lines, with every line item you can increment the YPOS by certain interval.

Cheers!

I think you cannot increase the window size dynamically. Because the Windows are all fixed and then we

hve the data in it..
