 Ha!

I finaly figures it out, you was right all along, I just needed to check for
error's..... It was getting an out of memory error...
 I also learned that you have to 'unmap' AND kill each buffer before you can
re-initialize it somewhere else when youre using a lot of data.

 But the draw back was this method was even slower than the one I previously
had.
 (see:

 I was trying to save the somewhat detailed menu picture of a program, so each
time you loaded , it would not have to re-draw. But after 5 day's work on
trying to figure out how to save and load a picture, I was better off just
letting it draw...
 Unless someone knows how to speed up the turtle like speed of the put
statment.
 (Get really does a great job!)

 Perhaps, is there a way to address the window location directly so you could
to a I$Write or I$read directly to the graphics window instead of going through
the tedious Get/Put/Map/Un-Map ing?

 Thanks for youre assistance in helping me learn a little bit more about Os9 &
Basic09!
