Hi Everyone,

I've written a graphing program that records information from an ethernet based temperature probe, and graphs it in a window. I wrote the graphing routine from scratch, and it's basically a NewPicture(), with a bunch of lines, dots and text added.

I've noticed in the latest version that there's a memory leak - the application progressively uses up more and more memory over time. This is in Windows XP.

It only happens when the graph window (where I create the picture) is open, and not at any other time.

Can anyone offer some suggestions about how I might be able to track down this memory leak?

Regards,
Paul.
